Just a moment...
More children have long covid than asthma. Reinfection can increase risks.

According to the article symptoms that occur are.
"including myocarditis, changes in taste and smell, thrombophlebitis and thromboembolism, heart disease, acute kidney injury, fluid and electrolyte disturbance, generalized pain, arrhythmias, abnormal liver enzymes, chest pain, fatigue and malaise, headache, musculoskeletal pain, abdominal pain, mental ill health, POTS or dysautonomia, cognitive impairment, skin conditions, fever and chills, respiratory signs and symptoms, and cardiovascular signs and symptoms."
These scientist need to consider that this isn't covid. Might help them to find a cure. They even go on to say in the same article that vaccines for Covid don't help or prevent long covid. Makes sense. It's not the same thing in any form

I still have long covid symptoms 2.5 years later 😅 I don’t even think it’s even got better, it’s just the same symptoms being managed. it freaks me out that, with each passing day, there are probably more and more people falling victim to the same chronic pain and exhaustion that I’ve experienced, and potentially with no end in sight

I had it for around 2-3 years too, but in February I got COVID again, and when I got better it wiped like most of the brain sludge. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago and I got the new fancy Frankenstein version, still have a bad throat, but it wiped out the rest (brain slowness and general tiredness) and I'm more or less feeling like before COVID!
Crazy and anecdotal of course.
Hang in there!

(I was completely fine after my first infection, it was the second one that got me)

And kids in many areas can’t even get vaccinated.

Adults, even elderly ones, also finding the shots harder to obtain or find at all.
