Been not posting for a bit for bad-feeling reasons and now this
Shit just keeps getting worse and worse 
One antigen test (all I had/can afford) is negative but I’m almost certain its covid cuz my friend I see all the time is sick and someone they live with has a confirmed case :(
I have never felt more doomer in my life, can’t stop thinking about not living
I don’t want to get worse anymore
At least this time I don’t feel so sick
Hopefully, thank you
Just can’t stop thinking about all those studies about increased risk of strokes, heart attacks, cognitive impairment etc, brain shrinking, etc etc etc
While what you say is true, we should keep in mind that those effects are rare overall, and that COVID being one of the most studied (and most tested) diseases at this point, we’re bound to find more effects than for other illnesses. You’ve beat it before, you can do it again 💪💪 keep us updated, comrade
This is untrue. I get that you’re trying to be positive here, but it’s not worth minimizing the dangers.
Around 1/5 Americans (18.3% or 60 million people) have had long COVID in total, and around 5-7% (1/20-1/14 or 16-23 million people) seem to be experiencing it at any given time (the latest CDC survey from June-July says 5.5%). For Trans people, the percentage currently experiencing long COVID is 16%; for people with disabilities, it’s 12.6%. Around a quarter of the total (1.4% or 4.5 million people) reported having long COVID symptoms that caused “significant activity limitations”.
The VA study from 2022 had a 52% increased rate of stroke, and 63% increased rate of cardiovascular issues in general.
These are not “rare”.
