Ann Coulter has always been a bomb-thrower. She traffics in saying outrageous things and then sits back and watches the fallout. Whether she believes half the stuff she says is anyone's guess. On a recent episode of her "Unsafe" podcast with Scott Adams, she compared long-haul COVID to UFOs and blamed New York liberals for making it up.

Long Covid is a result of persistent spike protein immune system interference.

Same here - oh and sometimes I can’t really regulate my body temperature too.
No clotshots but I was very sick when I came down with COVID in late 2020. My sense of smell still hasn’t really returned and with it went my ability to taste. It’s been a very bland 3+ years....
I live in the deep woods and have done so my entire life and I have never been bitten by a tick... Ever!
There is a disease called Lyme disease... It’s a temporary malady caused by being bit by a ‘deer tick’ and then not removing that tick immediately. Your chances of being bit by a deer tick are almost impossible.... First of all, you need to live where there are lots of deer and most people have never seen one, or if they have that deer was a very, very far distance from them. People who do get bitten by any tick typically remove that tick when bitten... If they don’t, then they typically will remove it while washing... If for some odd reason they leave that tick on them for a long period of time, and that tick happens to be a deer tick in particular, then they may get Lyme disease which is easily cured with antibiotics.
Long term Lyme disease is a complete falsehood and most Doctors will tell you that, but there are Doctors out there without scruples who will drain you and your bank account to cure you from this non-existent disease.
Then there those people who have LTD insurance... That’s Long Term Disability insurance. A minority of people will take advantage of that insurance, but to do so they need a ‘long term’ disease... Which is why some people claim that they have one... Especially one that is impossible to be tested for or to be diagnosed with... Like Long Term Covid, Long Term Lyme disease and Fibromyalgia. That is the reason why these non-existent long term diseases exist... LTD Insurance. Without that key benefit there would be no need for them.
A disease that actually does exist is the disease of laziness... That’s a real disease and far too many people suffer from it.
It hasn’t been mass murder. It was a nasty upper respiratory illness
You are so bizarrely and stubbornly wrong. Do you insist on resisting all the evidence to the contrary? Are you a paid shill? Can you just not handle the truth?
One of my students claimed to have Long Covid. It turned out to be heart damage.
very bland 3+ years....
Potato chips taste like newspaper.
So my take is short and sweet.
1. Ann needs to keep silent on a topic that she clearly knows nothing about.
2. Yes, Long Covid is legit. As many here know, I contracted Covid in early 2022, then developed Long Covid late in the year and was forced to retire because of it in Apr 2023.
3. As for what causes it, many folks have hit on it. Read the their posts and quit listening to the naysayers.
I've suffered with it over 18 months now and there is no end in sight. Is it affecting me as badly as it once did, no, but that's only because I get lots of rest and I pace myself. I eat only bland foods, and I only venture out when I have the strength to do so.
Same here. Regular potato chips are horribly. Now, that said, I credit the Ruffles Con Queso chips with helping me get my taste buds back. Don’t ask me why, but that particularly flavored chip did something to get my taste buds working again.
Bingo!
You are so wrong. Open your eyes to what informed people here are saying, especially drSteve78.
I take those as well, but most of them come in my daily vitamin, as directed by my daughter. I take extra D3 as well.
Sorry for your on-going ills.
I’m 72 and got two Moderna vax and one booster, then quit wtih that.
Take daily supplements (Vit C, Vit D, Quercetin, NAC, zinc, Krill Oil, Nigella Sativa Oil). These seem to have greatly reduced my pulmonary infections, but I still managed to get COVID twice, once on an Alaskan cruise (summer 2023) and again a few months back (2024). Weird thing is I was not going out when I caught it the second time. The first time I lost my taste and smell for a few weeks. Second time no loss.
I bounced back from both bouts without any long-term lasting effects for which I am very grateful! I got a lingering cough for several weeks, but that has been my normal response to colds and pulmonary infections since my 20s.
Best of luck to you.
Nearly everyone with a LC diagnosis got it after getting jabbed. Some of the few others were clearly injured with the bogus Covid hospital protocol. Others, whether neurotic or not, would in the recent past have been diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome or the like.
There is significant evidence that Covid itself was never a new, deadly spreading virus at all. Get that through your head and you might open up your brain to the other explanations.
And I am sorry you have been ill.
The problem with “Long Covid” is that it could be masking something more serious. My student was content to have “Long Covid” because it was the cool new thing. It was only due to her mother’s badgering that she ended up getting fully examined and being diagnosed with a bad heart valve.
Ironically, her treatment for Long Covid was the same treatment used for Anxiety and Depression.
You’re like me. When I caught Covid, I also caught pneumonia. I’ve been told that happens about 35% of the time, and when it does it increases the chances of developing Long Covid at a later date. I didn’t have the dreams, but the rest, yeah, pretty much. What gets me is the medical community, including the VA, have not done their homework and figured out a remedy for it. That’s what I want to see happen, so folks like us can finally have complete relief from it.
Can you be more detailed?
I’ve seen that article and I downloaded the video, but thanks for linking that!
I’ll check out, thanks for the posting that link!
