Prevention is critical because every avoided infection reduces the risk of Long COVID.

Long COVID doesn’t only affect health—it reshapes work. Many healthcare workers describe ongoing symptoms that change how they function day to day, forcing reduced hours, amended duties, or a phased return. At the same time, the pressure to “carry on” can be intense—driven by professional identity, staffing shortages, and fear of being seen as unreliable. Without clear Long COVID guidance, workplace adjustments can become inconsistent, slow, and stressful for everyone involved.
Prevention is critical because every avoided infection reduces the risk of Long COVID.

Long COVID does not follow a single pattern. Symptoms can vary widely in type, severity, and duration, sometimes even within the same person over time.

Frohes Neues! Ich hab mich heute mal hin gesetzt und mein Dokument zur #Postcovid Erholung überarbeitet. Jetzt mit neuem Gamechanger und Medikament. Gerne teilen https://gist.github.com/acid/7b36e6df2e314ff05c1c9943ce607936
We’re five years into the pandemic, and the science is telling a very different story than “just a cold.” COVID affects blood vessels, organs, metabolism, and cognition — and the impacts compound with each infection. It’s the same pattern we saw with smoking: people felt fine… until the long-term consequences surfaced.

WHY PROGRESSIVES AND LEFTISTS NEEDED TO WEAR A MASK SINCE YESTERDAY
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bl0DsT8khogQ_TOOYjBlor8TBj7N6A72dDwL2sLQRzs/edit?tab=t.0
I can now say, year four into the C19 pandemic, that I’ve had enough conversations with supposed progressives and revolutionaries about the importance of masking. Person after person, always the same talking points, always the same polite concern followed with dismissal and apathy. I am one of many who are tired of people not being honest with themselves and not committing to their claimed values. These conversations have become so repetitive, so artificial that I resort to typing my own automatic response to common talking points rather than wasting my time doing one-on-one. It should concern all anti-capitalists that, when confronted about masking and accessibility, visibly fall back on the same replies as right-wingers. While the latter may sound more crude and unapologetic, the premises are identical.
It is crucial to self-reflect on one’s own actions and whether they align with one’s values, because so many have tolerated cognitive dissonances and let them translate into material harm. Some have chosen it knowingly, which begs the question of how serious an individual is about the human rights and liberation of all peoples.
1. But we are social creatures, we have to see each other’s faces. Many essential settings don’t carry a social cost to wearing a mask, namely places like malls, grocery shops, public transit, pharmacies, movie theaters, concerts, conferences and clinics. A vast majority of activities can be carried out with a mask across the face. It makes sense to become a link in the chain to block transmission wherever possible, to protect the wellbeing of performers and workers. Any human being is vulnerable to Covid-19, some are simply more vulnerable, but this virus and its long-term effects don’t discriminate.

Al drie jaar besteedt @rivm zelden aandacht aan internationaal onderzoek naar frequentie, schade en ernst van #LongCovid na herhaalde #COVID19-infecties. Nu delen ze hun beperkte studie die minimale nieuwe gevallen suggereert sinds eind 2023.

Blood test developed that can diagnose ME/CFS with 96% accuracy. Links to long Covid found. Epigenetic connection confirmed (it's how the test works).
