Don’t mind me, I’m currently cerebrally inactive.
I’m repeatedly headbutting my wall.
A lady at work has just returned after two years off with long covid.

It’s ok, Tories will ignore, then blame labour for the numbers
The definition of long covid the ONS are using here (any covid symptoms persisting more than 4 weeks) means that these results should be treated cautiously, I dont think many people would consider a niggling cough 3 weeks after recovering to be a serious condition.
That being said there does seem to be a real link here, though whether its due to people being driven into unemployment/retirement from covid, unemployed/retired people being more vulnerable to covid, or unemployed/retired people being more willing to report symptoms cant be determined from this by the looks of it.
It’s the new ‘bad back’.
It was bad enough when shifting demographics meant we were going to have trouble with future social security deficits, but Brexit headshot cutting immigration off at the knee’s and Long Covid delivering a coup de grâce means thats it then.
If your healthy, don’t count on ever retiring. If your unhealthy? Guess you’ll die then. On plus side you will only be hungry and alone, climate change means you will be warm atleast.
