Makes sense cause the asymptomatic ones are still asymptomatic, too.

I guess the only way to truly cure Covid is to die.

They’ll feel better then.

From 2018, and the link may not be secure. But the headline says it all...

Interview: Leading Swiss university seeks closer ties with China's academia

The uni mentioned is the Univeristy of Zurich, the one that produced the study on long CoupFlu.

Agreed, this was a weaponized virus let loose on the world for geopolitical ambitions.

“This is very real - it can take months to recover from covid”

Reference?

I assume your reference also has percentages that fall in to this category also.

“Fatigue, shortness of breath and depression were the most common long-term symptoms...”

Depression is the symptom of a respiratory virus?!?

They call this LONG HAUL COVID.

The FLCCC has a protocol using the Ivermectin cocktail to deal with this condition.

One of the common effects of a Covid infection is benignly referred to as “airway remodeling.”

Note how the poll is poisoned by including “depression”. THAT is a result of lockdowns, yah idiots. I’m willing to bet that of the xxxx# still showing symptoms 90% are only showing depression — not any other symptoms. And that is certainly only caused by the Democrat shutdowns.

News articles are not references.

You’ll find the reference you’re looking for in the news article.

Funny how that works...
