COVID long haulers feel better after vaccine, researchers looking into why

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX) — Some people who have suffered from long COVID-19 symptoms also called "long haulers” are now finding relief after getting vaccinated. Health experts are now looking into why.

"There are people who have had COVID with persistent symptoms who have had improvement or complete resolution of their symptoms after being vaccinated,” said Dr. Joseph Gastaldo with OhioHealth.

Some COVID long haulers say vaccines are relieving their symptoms a few days after getting the vaccine. It’s now puzzling health experts.

"Physiology we don’t know why that is because I can't really wrap my mind around why that would happen. Is it due to stimulation of the immune system, we don't yet but that is something that is being reported,” said Gastaldo.

The World Health Organization estimates about 1 in 10 coronavirus patients experience persistently ill health 12 weeks after getting the virus.

"It actually has a name called PASC and that stands for Post-Acute Sequelae of Covid-19,” said Gastaldo.

Gastaldo said a third of people who have gotten the virus say they've symptoms up to nine months.

Too effective and not enough 💰💰

I think Trump paid about $10-$20 per dose for all the vaccines, so it's probably cheaper than you can find ivermectin unless you want to eat some horse wormer from the local feed store. Now if you want some experimental mono or polyclonal antibodies, or some other fancy therapeutic drugs, then you'll need some good insurance or a fat wallet.

I had no unpleasant side effects from my 2 Pfizer jabs. OTOH, both Shingrix jabs laid me out flat for almost 24 hours. Glad those are out of the way.

I got the modern-a stuff.

Shit-on a shingle did nothing to me.

Wife claims to have read (she be a facefuck user) that a big response is an indication of a strong immune system response.

I know nothing.

Probably because it was psychological all along.

Stick you with an experimental vaccine, and be shocked at the experimental results! By all means, all you sheep enjoy your shots.

This article is Psychology at ludicrous speed.

Trying to put into no-vac'ed peoples minds that covid/vac'd people are healthy, so must be okay to get jabbed.

That is, circulating an article to counteract the Pfizer 15M dose lab "mixup" last week, this week's J&J "pause", this year's VAER's data of severe side effects/death... all for a little flu-like virus, with a animal-testing-failed human experiment using a experimental "vaccine".

That has been my thoughts since the beginning. Forcing the body to produce something that creates an autoimmune response is not good. Doing it twice is “not gooder.”

On top of that, the body slices and dices the RNA viral strand and creates immunities to many (hundreds) parts of that strand. The vaccine only creates immunity to one tiny part of the virus code strand... the spike protein.

I would be comfy betting a years paychecks that natural immunity (get it and recover) yields vastly superior immunity over the targeted vaccine to any variants (mutations) that come out and wont make you hypersensitive to the spike protein as I fear the vaccine does.

I fear we are creating a population with a “peanut allergy” to the spike protein, especially those who already have natural immunity.

Let’s talk again the same time next year. I have 16 lab rats I’m following. They were all jabbed within the week. They will be my clinical test subjects, I’ll be the control. Sick days are starting to pile up.
