2/ "What we saw in people with #longCOVID is they were burning 20, 30 percent more energy than someone that we would expect for their height, weight, gender and age," he said. "So even though we were asking them to sit very still and not use any energy at all, their bodies were working really, really hard to maintain that."
"#COVID_19 infection significantly increased the speed of aging assessed by DNAmGrimAge, DNAmGrimAge2, & DNAmFitAge compared to non-infected subjects during the 3 years”
3/ “The mediation analysis suggested, once infected, vaccinated children & adolescents were just as likely to develop #longCOVID as their unvaccinated peers. This seemed to indicate no additional, special protective effect once infection occurred.
“Preventing #COVID19 infections in the first place, including through vaccination, appears to be the best way to avoid long #COVID”
Press release: "protection [against #LongCovid] afforded by the vaccine primarily comes from preventing infection in the first place, rather than offering special protection against long #COVID itself"

Welp, the spouse who'd been #NoVid is now positive. Masking and vaccines worked over 5 years. I'm using a mask in the house and will have the Hepa filter follow me around.
It was heartening to see the sea of people protesting yesterday. Not enough to overcome the disheartening feelings of seeing so many without masks.
We're never going to see an end to this thing. More of the population is going to continue to be disabled, the general public and the fascist regime will disregard it, and the regular plebs will carry on claiming ignorance and every and anything else to explain what is obvious to us few.
I'm a little salty. Our patient count has never seen ZERO for more than 24 hours, and while we at least are in an area of the country where infection rate is low, it is low and STEADY. Can't shake it. Hospital is ending its mask mandate.
While I am currently #novid , when (when and not if) I do finally catch it for the first time, my resolve rather than diminish will become exceptionally more sharp in effort to not catch it again. I'm certain it will damage my mental health even more than it already has. So you see, it is important to me not to catch it the first time.
