Experts perplexed over number of people getting long COVID
Public health experts are divided over how many people are getting long COVID-19, a potentially debilitating condition that comes after a patient has recovered from the coronavirus.

Ill effects from the condition can include fatigue, pain, neurological issues and even changes in mental health.

Initially, public health officials believed that only a small minority of people would suffer from long COVID-19. But some studies now indicate a majority of those infected with the coronavirus are experiencing long COVID-19 symptoms.


Was on the phone with a nurse discussing the state of the hospital since covid. There is no more people congregating in the cafeterias, people just eating at their department. I did not think things were getting more back to normal but I hoped it might. So no going to visit to say hi. She said she has not had covid yet and I was wondering about if we could keep it up. Was out shopping today and more were without masks than with. Does make more sense for people that already had it.

Not even a camel milkshake? I would still avoid the monkey milkshakes.
No problem, if the republicans win in November they will shut down the CDC and stop all funding for vaccines and research. Wearing a mask in public will be a federal crime and any citizen can sue you for it, or having an abortion or even wearing a condom. Like Russia with the word war, it will be illegal to say the words pandemic or vaccine and the SCOTUS will determine that it is states rights, not federal, they don't have any power.

Unknown fever: what infected more than a million residents of the DPRK
The fever that swept North Korea was most likely caused by an omicron strain of coronavirus, experts say. The uncertainty of the situation is due to the lack of reliable information and the lack of test results.

North Korea has not yet confirmed a single case of COVID-19, although foreign analysts believe that the virus has been spreading there since March 2020. Only on May 12, the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported the first case - with the BA.2 variant of the SARS-CoV-2 omicron strain, which is also called the "stealth omicron" because standard PCR tests do not identify it.

A day later, it became known that in the country at least 18 thousand people with COVID-19, six died. The government has declared a state of emergency. Kim Jong-un called an emergency meeting of the Politburo of the Workers' Party of Korea. It criticized the previous anti-pandemic measures and the decision to introduce a "maximum emergency" quarantine, which implies a nationwide lockdown and border restrictions.


Hopefully we get an accurate (insert laugh track here) account for the people that said we should have just pretended it was just another Flu and we should not make a big fuss about it.

Bank of England officials just told the Treasury Committee they are VERY worried about Long Covid! "Falling participation in the labour market is not a lack of job opportunities, but a rise in long term sickness linked to the pandemic. The issue of Long Covid is very serious."
