@morgfair I had the "long COVID" shortly after it arrived in the U.S. In 2020. The incapacitating symptoms lasted five months, with a distorted sense of smell and loss of balance for over a year. There was no available vaccine or treatments at that time and here, in NYC, we heard ambulance sirens every several minutes. I made my peace with death then but fortunately survived. I strongly recommend that people treat it seriously and get their recommended vaccinations.
