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...

Sometimes it is heart damage that is ignored in favor of a virtue signal
>> 0.0844 percent mortality rate
And even that low number is overstated due to the sloppiness in attributing mortality to COVID (i.e. confusing “dying with COVID” and “dying from COVID”).
>> relatively little is known about long COVID.
No worries, for now “trust the (modeled) science”, and as we learn more we’ll incorporate the new information into our model, and diddle the coefficients to better fit what has already been observed while still maintaining the future projections we need to serve our agenda. Of course, in three years when our projections fail to match reality, we’ll need to lather, rinse, repeat...
The globalists have been doing this with climatism models for decades, they know the drill and can readily apply what they’ve learned about “modeling” and “projecting” to the covidism agenda as well.
>> The human version of ivermectin is pretty easy to get now.
That’s a good point. I’ve been lazy about trying... the horse paste is on the shelf right down the road. Plus, the pills lack the mocking humor potential of the horse paste. :-)
Funny thing: the unvaccinated don’t get long COVID.
If you are flu free this winter, you don’t live near your grandkids. Just sayin’.
Stay healthy.
I have some joint twinges..probably arthritis...but recent ecg and 2 lots of heart scans showed perfect heart condition.
I used Zicam, Zinc Sulfate and Vitamin D3. Covid was a Cold for me. I didn’t even need to go to Tractor Supply.
Heart damage from Covid is worse in people in their 20’s

One notes in the referenced IHME web page, the data goes through 2019, pre-Covid. IHME, which has "paused" its data gathering and reporting on Covid as of December 2022, has managed to keep the "myocarditis" page up-to-date only through 2019, so over three years it's not anywhere near up to date.
For your second source, one reads: "...Incidence is usually estimated...."
As for the citations mentioning VAERS, if one accepts all the "fact-checkers" saying that "vaccines injury and death" are false, then the VAERS system doesn't support your claims either.
Moreover, both McCullough AND the CDC claims are "claims," given that the data is partial, contested and often difficult to parse. To default to the position that the CDC remains an honest broker in data collection and reporting is to align with "safe and effective," still for still-experimental mRNA injections 1) without trial results completed, and 2) covered by repeated "emergency use authorization" declarations from the Biden administration currently.
I was amused by your turn of phrase, "Did that little dickens pop up again?" Rather folksy, and echoing the now-famous "You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Seriously, y'all. Stop it."
Because then when we would be studying the aftermath of the first designer global bioweapon, released by the Chinese government/PLA, and we can't have that can we? Particularly when they already have some of the answers, since they tested it continuously during their gain-of-function.
This long Covid sounds a lot like that mysterious debilitating disease, the name of which I don’t recall, that no one could medically prove, which consisted mainly of some kind of chronic lassitude.
... and many of them also started with the "vaccine" and neverending "boosters" that compromised -- if not damaged -- their immunue system's effectiveness in fighting infection.
Had you bothered to read the source material of the study that is the very subject of this thread, you would know that this study cohort was divided into two populations who suffered Long COVID: 2020 and 2021.
At the end of 2020, only 8M doses globally had been administered. Thus it is highly unlikely that anyone in the 2020 cohort was vaccinated.
Estimated Global Proportions of Individuals With Persistent Fatigue, Cognitive, and Respiratory Symptom Clusters Following Symptomatic COVID-19 in 2020 and 2021
I haven’t run across a fixed number but the short answer seems to be that the unvaccinated get it more often and hit harder than the vaccinated. Here’s some info to guess at:
An Italian study estimated 15% of youth 6-15 had long covid and the same was true for the UK
https://news.yahoo.com/long-covid-risk-unvaccinated-know-214117941.html
From Penn State:
More than half of the 236 million people who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 worldwide since December 2019 will experience post-COVID symptoms — more commonly known as ‘long COVID’
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/10/211013114112.htm
“
here’s a summary out of the UK of multiple studies. Most say that vaccinated have less of a chance (up to 50%) for long covid and if they do get breakthrough infections they have a lower rate of long covid and a shorter duration:
“”Conclusion
There is evidence that vaccinated people who are subsequently infected with COVID-19 are less likely to report symptoms of long COVID than unvaccinated people, in the short term (4 weeks after infection), medium term (12 to 20 weeks after infection) and long term (6 months after infection). This is in addition to any benefit of vaccination in preventing COVID-19 infection (5).... Additionally, there was evidence that unvaccinated people with long COVID who were subsequently vaccinated reported fewer long COVID symptoms than those who remained unvaccinated.

” number of RECENT peer-reviewed studies in respected medical journals have established beyond a doubt the in treating COVID.*
respectfully, hogwash - after three years and many studies, they all repeat the same conclusion as seen in these studies from 2022. Prayer probably works a lot better
“Conclusions and relevance: In this randomized clinical trial of high-risk patients with mild to moderate COVID-19, ivermectin treatment during early illness did not prevent progression to severe disease. The study findings do not support the use of ivermectin for patients with COVID-19.
Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04920942.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35179551/
For outpatients, there is currently low‐ to high‐certainty evidence that ivermectin has no beneficial effect for people with COVID‐19. Based on the very low‐certainty evidence for inpatients, we are still uncertain whether ivermectin prevents death or clinical worsening or increases serious adverse events, while there is low‐certainty evidence that it has no beneficial effect regarding clinical improvement, viral clearance and adverse events. No evidence is available on ivermectin to prevent SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

Treatment with ivermectin did not result in a lower incidence of medical admission to a hospital due to progression of Covid-19 or of prolonged emergency department observation among outpatients with an early diagnosis of Covid-19.

What is the Vax status of those with long Cold-19?
My personal first hand experience says that’s not true. I’m not vaxxed and I definitely have long COVID. Been battling it on and off since 2020. When I get re-exposed to COVID the symptoms get worse. Chest pain and brain fog/cognitive impairment. And I use ziverdo kits with IVM in them every time.
ah yes, the old 99.91% survivable.
Tell that to the 1.1 million US dead, mostly grannies but a lot of moms and dads, too. (Thats 1 in 300 dead for the math impaired)
Out of 100 million US cases, (that’s 1 in 3 of us) we can guess/model/forecast (based on disability claims) about 10=15% are suffering from long covid who I bet can well debate the definition of ‘survivable’ as it relates to the quality of life. For someone who can’t work, or remember things, or walk without getting breathless, and whose income is reduced to disability payments, ‘survivable’ seems a rather dismissive cop-out, don’t you think?
Ah yes, the old "tell it to" which is like unto the "you're gonna kill grandma" game.
I will quite clearly tell anyone who wants to have documentation that -- sit down for this -- people die. Every year. From the CDC itself for this last year:
"Data are for the U.S. - Number of deaths: 3,383,729 -- and --- Death rate: 1,027.0 deaths per 100,000 population.
Source for those who need it: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/deaths.htm
Moreover, given the announced "Life expectancy: 77.0 years," lots of "mostly grannies," as you argue, die. And of course, "grannies" are also mothers, so mothers die. And so on.
You write, "For someone who can’t work, or remember things, or walk without getting breathless, and whose income is reduced to disability payments, ‘survivable’ seems a rather dismissive cop-out, don’t you think?"
Got any stats to reference on your list of those who can't work because of long Covid? But you fail -- cop-out might be another way to describe it -- those who are on disability from ADEs from the mRNA still-experimental and still-EUA-authorized injections.
Here's a source for some of those: https://www.realnotrare.com/
Would you be "rather dismissive" of these?

want more? I find it hard to believe that predominately women would trade their salaries and perks for food stamps and eviction notices
Or are you being dismissive because it does affect predominately women?
