• 50% of COVID infections are asymptomatic.
• AT LEAST 10% of infections result in long COVID.
• Vaccines don't prevent infections.
• Reinfections ravage us. There's no way to "train" the immune system because it's not a muscle. The reality is that you don't build immunity with repeated infections; vaccines strengthen the immune system by teaching it to recognize pathogens without all the risks. Focusing on infection prevention is key.
• Antigen tests give false negatives. The way to know if you have COVID is with PCR.

Me too. Having a really hard week. Everything hurts. My body and my psyche feel threadbare. #ChronicCovid.#PersistentCovid

I've discovered some large bruising under my boobs now 9 months after my initial infection and according to the internet bruising easily suddenly can be an indicator of blood clotting! Idk what the fuck to do #LongCovid #persistentcovid #doctorsofmastodon #help

Does anyone have any tips I may have missed for sleep issues with long/persistent covid #LongCovid #persistentcovid #Sleepproblems
I haven't had restful sleep in now over a week and I'm absolutely dying. I need some tips or meds I can get over the counter without too much issue here in #AotearoaNZ #longcovidnz
A lot of meds available in other countries are banned here or I need a script for them so please take note of that before making suggestions. I'm feeling like absolute shit, this is probably the worst time I've had with sleep since I caught covid in may last year. Help

Ah good. I just discovered one of my nails has an indent in it and according to the internet this could be because of immune system issues.
Hopefully because it's on the end of my nail means that it was a temporary disruption to immune system regulation (from long/persistent covid) and now that I'm on truvada, not going to worsen.
Any more information or advice is appreciated

I cannot stress enough how much #truvada for #longcovid #longcovidnz #persistentcovid is helping. And in such a short period of time as well. Absolutely nuts. If you are a #longhaulcovid person I highly recommend giving it a go. Covid is airborne HIV.

For the rest of you. If you haven't had it yet I highly recommend you up your masking game. Don't catch this virus. Immunity debt isn't real.

Day 9 of truvada and I feel almost how I did pre-covid.
I'm still disabled by other post viral illnesses, and I don't have nearly as much energy as I'd like. But I'm feeling way better than before. To the point that I feel like I might be able to start sewing again sometime in the future???? I still don't have all the cognitive function I had pre-covid and I suspect that will be permanent, but I'm feeling way better than I did before. What I'm saying is that truvada for #longcovid #persistentcovid #longcovidnz works.

I hate doing therapy while sick with #LongCovid #persistentcovid
I feel dizzy again and nauseated after a little crying. It's not fair. Can't even do therapy without it destroying me entirely now.

Acute and postacute sequelae associated with SARS-CoV-2 reinfection - Nature Medicine

A new analysis using US Department of Veterans Affairs databases showed that reinfection is associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality, hospitalization and a wide range of long COVID complications in individuals who have had SARS-CoV-2 compared to those with no reinfection.

Lots of people have been improving on truvada. Saw a tweet from a mutual that they managed to do excersize for the first time in months after a month or so of truvada so I'm super hopeful that it will work. Looking forward to being able to go out on my scooter for lil joy rides and maybe even cook a meal for once. The first time being able to cook a meal in months and months.
