Mein Long-COVID – Fortschritte und Frust
Seit dem Herbst 23 lebe ich mit Long-COVID. Ein Rückschlag im März 26 brachte mich dazu, über meine Erfahrungen zu bloggen.https://angela-carstensen.de/mein-long-covid-fortschritte-und-frust/
No new info, but I'm waiting for the NASAL #vaccine, which should actually cut down on transmission of #COVID, rather than mostly protecting from "more serious" illness.
I've gotten all vax and boosters from the beginning, #mask in social situations with strangers or sick people, and I've confirmed I've had the disease one time (last summer). I recovered after four days of mostly sleeping, but only recently discovered that I can't smell certain spices like coriander. 🙁
So... I consider myself lucky but in my small way I have joined the ranks of #LongCOVID sufferers.

COVID‑19 variant BA.3.2 is spreading quickly across US...
"There’s no sign so far that BA.3.2, nicknamed Cicada, is any more dangerous or causes more severe disease than the variants that were circulating in the winter of 2025-26. But because it’s significantly different from them, 👉 the current COVID-19 vaccine may not be as effective against it." 👈
