A unique strength of the current study is its evaluation of the prevalence of 8 subtypes and 41 symptoms associated with long COVID. Among these, neurological symptoms emerge as a detrimental long-term problem for individuals with a history of COVID-19 [35], which is uncommonly seen in common respiratory viral infection such as seasonal influenza [36, 37] and the common cold [37].
Analyses conducted by Haupert et al [38] identified multiple symptoms specific to COVID-19, such as depression and sleep apnea, whereas ischemic heart disease was the only significant post-flu manifestation. The neurological subtype has an estimated pooled prevalence of 16% among confirmed COVID-19 cases, closely following the respiratory subtype (20%). The prevalence of specific symptoms within the neurological subtypes, such as memory problems (11%) and brain fog (4%), highlight the cognitive impact of long COVID among the global COVID-19 population.
These findings highlight the need for heightened attention to neurological complications within long COVID care and research.

Imagine seeing this and thinking the pandemic ended because acute deaths and hospitalizations went down, while people quietly languish with debilitating chronic symptoms at a rate completely unheard of with the flu

The vaccines did what, knocked a chunk off of an already absurd figure? They aren't stopping transmission. They aren't stopping long covid (not really). And you think the pandemic is over?

@currentbias
if you refuse to look at what's right in front of your face (and in your head/organs/blood/etc.), you can think anything.
