And even though COVID is still spreading widely, daily life has returned to normal for most people, even during this summer's wave of infections. On Wednesday, Noah Lyles competed in his Olympic race despite a symptomatic COVID infection and won a bronze medal.

I think i got that kind of long covid in 2020 (horrible painful coughs non stop that caused me to vomit on a couple occasions) it lasted for 7(?) months 5 of which were inside after the lockdown with no contact to anyone (some LC remains but the coughs are gone). I assume it was covid but it would require me getting covid in december 2019 which i cant prove. Good luck with it, it fucking sucks.

You caught the original Fort Detrick strain before it jumped to China

I was honestly doubtful when I first heard that idea but I fully believe it at this point.

Like what was that “mysterious vaping illness” in 2019 with most of the symptoms of COVID at the same time as respiratory virus outbreaks in nursing homes, which totally disappeared when COVID showed up

I'm right about everything (sorry)

Like what was that “mysterious vaping illness” in 2019

Not just the mystery vape pneumonia and the mystery nursing home pneumonia with the nursing homes being 3 miles away from military bases, but also the spain-cool sewer sample and the disability % severely spiking in early 2019

covid was around in spring 2019

I'm about a year in on the coughs. Rarely I'll have days without it, but yeah. Assume it's long covid but no real way to prove it other than that I'm a shut in who doesn't smoke or anything. Get my shots and all but it only takes one time. Be safe out there.
