  • Scripps News digs into life for the millions of Americans with Long COVID. Four years in, people both young and old, vaccinated and unvaccinated alike experience debilitating conditions for months or years, often after mild COVID-19 infections.
    We talked with patients and experts about what their life is like and what treatment could look like for an illness with no proven cure.

    I ran 2 half marathons per year, regular 5Ks 4x per week, and got Long covid after getting infected with Omicron. Haven't been able to work and run or anything else for a year now. I believe now that it is an additive effect after being infected multiple times. Its a slow developing condition makes your resistance against new infections very low.

      @@safeeffective385 No, I don't think so, plus the far-right has been very loud and effective on covering us all with lies. Plus we need to not to forget that more and more precautions have been lifted after a lot of people got vaccinated, so it's no wonder most infections happened to vaccinated people. However, if we followed the far-right's logic we would have to stop using goal keeper in soccer, because in most scored goals there was a goal keeper present.

    On Christmas Day, my GF and I spent 7 hours visiting, eating, and chatting with about 17 people who are all fully vaccinated. At least 8 of them are either currently sick with covid or just getting over it.
    (My GF actually rode to the event and back in a car w two fully jabbed people who were currently covid pos and sick/showing symptoms for 12 hours each way… without a mask).
    One guy who is also fully vaccinated and recently boosted tested positive for covid on the 23rd, so chose to stay home/missed the party.
    Neither of us have had any vaccines at all, and are doing just fine today w zero symptoms.
    Have since heard from several hundred other unjabbed folks that report experiencing the exact same thing over the holidays.
