A couple more short quotes from the paper:
"Long COVID (LC) is a mass disabling event of significant public health concern ..."
"The clinical characteristics of Long COVID overlap with those of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and dysautonomia ... risk of both these conditions increases by up to 60% and 80%, respectively, after COVID infection."

"ME/CFS, ties to Long COVID are the focus of ongoing research studies"

Recent findings from NIH study show that COVID infection leads to more cases of ME/CFS (myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome)
New incidence cases of ME/CFS were 15 times higher than pre-pandemic levels

<strong>Wie viele Kinder in BW an Long Covid leiden, ist unbekannt. Klar ist: Ein Schulbesuch ist für manche Betroffene nicht leistbar. Dabei sind Kinder schulpflichtig. Eine betroffene Familie erzählt.</strong>

About 5 years ago (see image below, saved this tweet before I deleted my account) I asked whether COVID would cause more ME/CFS cases and whether anyone was going to study this issue. And I was not the only person asking this!
We now have a study showing that this is indeed what happens 😢
Among participants infected with SARS-CoV-2 the incidence of ME/CFS is 15 times higher than pre-pandemic rates.
The People's CDC is inviting people to submit public comments to the CDC in advance of their meeting about vaccines.
Specifically, they urge people to:
"Recommend updated COVID vaccines for all ages AND
Strengthen our vaccine drive by recommending more frequent boosting (at least every six months) and more frequent updates to the vaccines, adjusted for the latest variants."
