Most people who ended up with long COVID started with a mild case, new study shows

Even mild COVID-19 cases can have major and long-lasting effects on people's health. That is one of the key findings from our recent multicountry study on long COVID-19 – or long COVID – recently published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

We found that a staggering 90% of people living with long COVID initially experienced only mild illness with COVID-19. ...women have twice the risk of men and four times the risk of children...

We analyzed data from 54 studies reporting on over 1 million people from 22 countries who had experienced symptoms of COVID-19....

...Among all people with long COVID, our study found that nearly one out of every seven were still experiencing these symptoms a year later...

This study seems to refute a recent article suggesting long covid in women was 'just menopause', and re-establishes that long covid not only is real, it's worldwide and disproportionately affects women. I posted an article last week that pointed to covid infiltrating all the body systems, which may be the contributing factor of long-covid
meta-analysis is here
and original investigation with download PDF is at JAMA, here

Dr Peter McCullough explains that latest analysis shows Myocarditis now running at 25,000 per million and we’re still relatively early days.

Pre Covid it was 4 in a million.

Ahhh....thanks for the free FREEP sarcasm. it is amazing how may ppl seriously flip me that crap. The same ppl that moan about 1/6/2021 but refuse to acknowledge ALL summer of 2020 when their own gov’t was encouraging more and more race riots. Sickening...literally.

I’ve watched a number of German news pieces on ‘long-covid’. Three things stand out.

1. For each guy who is diagnosed with long-covid....there’s two women.
2. Fitness level prior to Covid....doesn’t appear to influence long-covid odds.
3. Teenagers are just as likely to have long-covid, as people in their 40s/50s.

Oddly, most of the news pieces end with the doctors agreeing that there isn’t much joint research being done, and funds for research at present are marginal.

Most importantly, also myocarditis, SADS, “unexpectedly” and “suddenly” free.

Stand your ground, FRiend!

Mrs. Tick and I are ivermectin success stories.

I remember your graphic well, it was helpful when we each got COVID a year ago. We self-medicated with immune system vitamins, zinc — and Ivermectin. Less than a week down with the Kung Flu... no side effects (well, except my mane got longer and thicker :-))... no relapse... no “long covid” or any of that other crapola the fearmongers believe into. In our house we believe into healing and pray to GOD in Jesus’ name in expectation of healing.

Two weeks ago when I got the flu (remember flu?) same story... immune system aids and a dose of Ivermectin. Fever lasted TWO days, easiest flu I have ever had, was even milder than the mild Kung Flu.

Some like blueplum delight in and teach fear and victimhood and illness... some like yourself delight in and teach health and healing. Never understood the former, the latter is much more pleasant.

FRegards

P.S. At the moment we have the Tier C “Good Enough” Zimecterin. It was all that was available at (guess where?) Tractor Supply the day I bought it. I can confirm that it doesn’t taste as good as the Tier B stuff we took a year ago, still not THAT bad. And I think it was a bit more expensive.

dude - you’re the one trolling a long covid thread with a billboard sized post beating a dead horse..paste.

By the time you come down with long covid symptoms, the damage is already done. A preventative isn’t going to help. It’s about as effective as offering a bandaid after your arm is cut off, never mind the dozens of studies that debunked the wonder cream.

And yes, I was all over the DC storming of the WH that forced Trump into a bunker, posted a slew of Portland/Seattle/Kenosha articles and have repeatedly demanded investigations and prosecutions of the same.

But I’d like to keep this thread focused on long covid if you don’t mind.

Chalk me up as another 78-year-old success story. I’m flu free this winter -— so far. It goes with being a cantankerous free thinker. I marvel at those who willingly let their gov’t thrust ‘free’ covid shots and boosters into their arms but believe that what vets have safely given horses and other animals for decades is poison.

It is fascinating that “Estimated Global Proportions” is now science. We watched the Gates-funded IMHE at the University of Washington's “always tomorrow” and “out into the future” projections always be moved beyond the day's actual stats. “Estimated” and “projected” began this “event” with Imperial College UK “forecasting” which was wildly wrong, after three years’ worth of hindsight. but just as Paul Ehrlich's trail of errors for decades is getting trotted out again as “science,” now the NIH is doing “meat” analysis on projections. The three card monte is in full sway, and the pea is never under the cup, for it was palmed. Such is today's news. Sing with me to the Ray Stevens' tune: "Everything is Covid now, in it's own way, like the deadly climate change, or crytpo's bankruptcy...."

One recalls a part of the Stevens' lyric, borrowed and well used: "There are none so blind as he who will not see."

Interesting. Thank you for that post.

“Projections” come from “models”.

We’re slouching toward Armageddon, one “model” at a time.

To use as a prophylactic, how often would you suggest? Quarterly?

Would prophylactic dose be the same as a dose when you have Covid?

I’m also interested in learning more about the effect IVM has on cancer and other medical issues. It has been reported that cancer has quickly disappeared in people who took IVM and/or dog de-wormer. I’ve wondered if that was the real reason the big pharma / government cabal basically outlawed it.

>> By the time you come down with long covid symptoms, the damage is already done. A preventative isn’t going to help.

Ivermectin is taken both as a prophylactic AND a therapeutic. But maybe it should have been taken concurrently with the onset of COVID...? So listening to the nay-sayers and avoiding early-stage Ivermectin treatment may have actually CONTRIBUTED to what you call “long covid”...?

>> dozens of studies that debunked the wonder cream

That’s false information. A number of RECENT peer-reviewed studies in respected medical journals have established beyond a doubt the efficacy of Ivermectin in treating COVID. See, this is SCIENCE... it’s never “settled”. Especially when the early “science” is from agenda-driven agencies.

In our house we choose to believe the results of our own “clinical trials” (N=2) — 100% efficacy in reducing the severity of COVID-19 infection and flu, with no side effects (and no long covid).

Ah, today’s first COVID fear porn. I’ve got to look around to find the first sure-to-be-there climate change fear porn.

My teen son had mild Covid two summers ago.
He is now getting over three weeks of pneumonia.
Coincidence?

--- "We're slouching toward Armageddon, one 'model' at a time."

And yet, as of today, three years into the "event" ---

( 6,705,769 Global Deaths / 7,944,245,374 Global Population ) x 100 = 0.0844 percent mortality rate.

Sources: https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/ and https://www.census.gov/popclock/world

If the "official" mortality rate is calculated on three years' running total, what would an annualized rate be? Less, to be sure.

The chance of living through Covid and whatever "long Covid" is may be seen as a "long shot." A mere 99.9156 percent survivable.

The CBS article states clearly, "Compared with COVID-19, relatively little is known about long COVID."

Let that sink in. "Relatively little" is known. So analyses and articles aplenty will prop up the narrative for this deadly or debilitating pestilence which is only 99.9156 percent survivable.

Long Covid? Long shot? How mnay shots? Safe and effective but long, longer and longest -- is the marketing.

The human version of ivermectin is pretty easy to get now.
No need to buy horse paste.
And yes, it works.

McCullough dropped off the map in 2021. Did that little dickens pop up again?

pre-covid, cases of myocarditis is the US averaged about 250,000 cases a year and that amount is considered ‘rare’

If you go to IHME, world-wide pre-vaccine, “Summary Myocarditis was responsible for 977 000 DALYs (95% UI 804 00–1 130 000) in 2019. In 2019, there were 728 000 incident cases (585 000–879 000) of myocarditis in males and 538 000 incident cases (436 000–651 000) in females.
https://www.healthdata.org/results/gbd_summaries/2019/myocarditis-level-4-cause

Here’s another world-wide estimate:
“he incidence of myocarditis is approximately 1.5 million cases worldwide per year. Incidence is usually estimated between 10 to 20 cases per 100,000 persons
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK459259/#:~:text=Incidence%20is%20usually%20estimated%20between%2010%20to%2020,difficult%20to%20ascertain%20as%20many%20cases%20are%20subclinical.

But I don’t think myocarditis has much to do with long covid.

Long covid deals mostly with sleep orders, mood swings, shortness of breath, brain fog, chest tightness, loss of hair, smell or taste issues, mobility issues, muscular aches and skin rashes

Most of what I’ve learned about myocarditis, besides it’s rare is:
According to the CDC, “Of the hundreds of millions of Covid vaccine doses given in the U.S. since late 2020, there have been around 1,000 reports of vaccine-related myocarditis or pericarditis in children under age 18, primarily young males”

According to a breakdown shown at a chart at the below link, from VAERS: 972 reported, 635 confirmed out of 54 million doses.

CDC enhanced surveillance:
During the surveillance periods (through November 2021 for 12–17 years and April 2022 for 5–11 years), VAERS received 430 reports of myocarditis or myopericarditis after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination in children ages 5–17 years
that met CDC case definition
190 completed the patient or parent survey, 128 were unreachable on multiple attempts, 98 had no telephone contact information in the report, and 7 declined to participate • 226 cardiologists or other healthcare providers (HCP) completed a survey, 120 were unreachable on multiple attempts, and 65 had no telephone contact information
https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/meetings/downloads/slides-2022-06-22-23/03-covid-shimabukuro-508.pdf

If you go further down to the chart entitled: Verified myocarditis and pericarditis in the 0–7-day risk interval among MALE children ages 5-17 years by age group and dose, the largest number shown under excess risk column is 151 per million - That’s far from McCullough’s claim of 25,000/mil. Maybe he’s trying to pass off the ‘normal’ pre-covid rate as covid-caused?
