  1. Yes? How many papers are there now showing the increased risk of cardiac arrest, diabetes, MECFS, POTS, cancers, fibromylagia, MCAS etc?

    It’s NOT a cold. I started losing my hair in clumps 6 weeks into my infection last summer and still falling out. I have a dozen symptoms and there are zero treatments.

    Long Covid Kids charity are exhausted trying to help parents who’ve had their kids totally disabled with the virus too.

  2. No. I wasn’t worried about it before. I certainly won’t be now.

  3. Considering the NHS is in a horrible state, at least 10% of cases result in Long Covid, we have more disabled people than ever, excess deaths are majorly up and it’s well established there are lots of awful long term effects, it seems pretty idiotic to not be concerned.

    Good news: there are simple and easy things we can all do to avoid infection that don’t involve bunkering down in the basement.

  4. Not worried as such, perhaps mindful of it. It’s still an unpleasant thing.

  5. We should be concerned if it’s on the rise. It’s not “just a cold”, there’s studies that shows it can damage the heart & circulatory system.

  6. yes, but is there much we can do? Lockdown ultimately failed to stop most people getting it. Maybe it stopped hospitals collapsing

  7. Typical Media trying to stir things up. Its over, so fu*k off BBC and stop it! Also stop listening to bad scientists and listen to the good ones, if they’ve not been censored yet so there is only 1 science yeah?

  8. Im seeing a lot of comments about how bad covid and long covid is. I wonder how many unvaccinated are having such a hard time?

  9. Not at all. Should still have immunity for winter. Might be a bit more at risk of getting the sniffles by spring though.

  10. Nah what’s it gonna do, give me a 6 month long sore throat for the third year in a row?! 😭

  11. Why should we be when “Prof Massimo Palmarini says he is not too worried about what he is seeing” from the article isn’t.
