“even mild or asymptomatic COVID infections can lead to a wide range of silent long term heath impacts — compromising our immune, vascular, circulatory, renal, metabolic, gastrointestinal systems and even cognitive function.”

The Pandemic Never Ended
“I never imagined I’d come to rely on 15 to 20 medications per day just to feel somewhat normal. I still have to ration my steps. I still feel physically ill the day after I do too much, walk uphill, exercise, or dance at a wedding. And now, I am still plagued with the fear of an ongoing pandemic while many have the luxury of pretending it’s over.”

Long Covid is a living hell – but I’ve finally found a solution

Problems with iron levels in the blood and the body's ability to regulate this important nutrient as a result of SARS-CoV-2 infection could be a key trigger for long COVID, new research has discovered

Long Covid warning: 'Silent organ damage is a real problem'
The briefing also says Long Covid can also lead to a 'substantially increased' risk of sudden death and 'silent' damage to cells and organs which can lead to later illness.
"Certainly the silent organ damage is a real problem, we think, for future development of disease. When you're young and healthy, you can take a certain amount of damage to the system without it showing up.
"But as people age, their capacity to buffer against that particular set of damage might decline and we might see increased risk of other symptoms, particularly heart, lung, brain, emerging in people's fifties and sixties."

“So I did what the journalist should have done. I went looking for some data. We all know that doctors and nurses and everyone else in healthcare are sicker now than five years ago, right? I mean, you do, don't you? That across all the massive workforce of the NHS, sickness absence rates are now 25% higher than the pre-pandemic average? Right?”
So I did what the journalist should have done.
I went looking for some data.
We all know that doctors and nurses and everyone else in healthcare are *sicker now than five years ago*, right?
I mean, you do, don't you?
That across all the massive workforce of the NHS, sickness absence rates are now 25% higher than the pre-pandemic average?
Right?
‘We’re losing decades of our life to this illness’: long Covid patients on the fear of being forgotten
“‘We sometimes will see someone who’s had Covid one, two or three times without problems, and then on the fourth time, suddenly they’ve got long Covid, and that makes them ill for a long time.’ The fact there is no lasting immunity to covid should have redefined public health”

“Research into rehabilitation models, treatment and integrated care is needed, and should take into account biological underpinnings as well as possible psychological mechanisms and the patient perspective.”

Update on my protocol. I spent approx. 2 weeks with a special ChatGPT prompt to create my individual Long Covid & ME/CFS treatment plan. It’s a massive plan with a 4 week introduction phase. After that first real benefits should be visible after 3 months and long lasting benefits…— Marco 🇩🇪🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@Gmwetz) February 26, 2025
“Update on my protocol. I spent approx. 2 weeks with a special ChatGPT prompt to create my individual Long Covid & ME/CFS treatment plan. It’s a massive plan with a 4 week introduction phase. After that first real benefits should be visible after 3 months and long lasting benefits after around 12 months. Maybe it’s risky - but I am declining slowly anyway. So, I will give it a try. My last attempt - if this is not successful, so be it.
But as I said, I see already changes (10 days in) My Lunalae is coming back on my thumbs, my wound healing is faster, less cold hands and my skin / scalp is less itchy and better heart rate while standing.
But there are also things what I would call “side effects” like pain and additional exhaustion. But I will hang in there.
I don’t know what it will bring. But why should I wait ? For what ? When ? We are loosing our lives NOW.
I will update you regularly.”

I hate how much #LongCovid has messed up my brain, and particularly my short-term memory. This evening, I needed to go to the toilet. So, I dragged myself to the bathroom. Once I got there, I forgot why I was there. Since I was there, I went in and washed my hands. /1— Dan the LC Kiwi 🇳🇿 (@LongCovidKiwi) February 22, 2025
“I hate how much #LongCovid has messed up my brain, and particularly my short-term memory.
This evening, I needed to go to the toilet. So, I dragged myself to the bathroom. Once I got there, I forgot why I was there.
Since I was there, I went in and washed my hands…Then I stumbled back to the couch. 5 minutes later I find that I am now urgently needing the toilet. Dragged myself back to the bathroom.
Now I’m really confused. I remember that I’d just washed my hands, so I assume I had also gone to the toilet. I hadn’t. FFS.”

The majority assume LC only comes in the form of fatigue etc, which is demonstrably untrue. This is just one way in which the disease can present itself. This causes many to believe the number of LC cases to be far lower than reality & even believe they don’t have it themselves.— James Throt MBBS, MD, PhD, FRCPath (@JamesThrot) February 19, 2025
