The covids have unexpected health consequences that are way beyond the scope of the flu, including heart conditions, and chronic respiratory problems.
Yeah, long COVID seems to hit people randomly, and it seems even vaccination status doesn't make a huge difference.
And before you know it you've spent a year in bedcare.
It seems that way if you don't know anything, yes.
It's not totally random. I've noticed it affects self-centered and narcissistic people more frequently, almost like it's one more justification to be a perpetual victim.
Didn't think I'd see the "disabled people are just looking for attention" card being played on Lemmy but here we are.
I think they're saying that unvaccinated people are more likely to get more severe cases of covid and therefore are more likely to get long covid.
I read it as anti-vaxxers, COVID conspiracy idiots, and maybe conservatives in general, not disabled people.
Why would anti-vaxxers or COVID conspiracists be talking about having Long COVID? They're more likely to represent it as a minor cold, not talking publicly about being disabled by illness.
Because once it actually significantly affects them they're more likely to suddenly care about it.
You know what's wild? My alzheimer's patients almost always have the most healthy bodies and rarely complain about pain. They're not overweight. They don't get CHF. They pass through COVID and other illnesses with mild symptoms.
Your simplified strawman contains a seed of truth.
Ah yes. Your tiny sample size.
From a disabled person. Fuck off. COVID sucked and continues to affect me.
You don't know my sample size. I promise it's much bigger than your twitter samples.
Twitter. The heck makes you think I use Twitter. 😹 Try again. Asshole.
tiny sample size. The heck makes you think I have a tiny sample size. 😹 Try again. Asshole.
This conversation is incredibly stupid and tedious. I will continue to reflect the quality of the posts you send me.
I feel sorry for your patients who have you as their caregiver.
They love me because it's my job to help them reach acceptance.
Oh sweetheart. Unless you account for a heck of a lot of people. Hundreds to thousands isn't a very large sample size when you take into account the amount of people with disabilities there is in the world. And you also have to account for figures of people with undiagnosed disabilities too.
So yes. Your sample size is akin to your IQ.
Low.
My sample size is larger than most studies you could cite.
You keep saying you have a large sample size but you won't say how large. Why should anyone believe you?
Retrospective cohort study of 196,992 adults after COVID-19 infection in Clalit Health Services members in Israel between March 2020 and January 2021.
Our data suggest that there is no increase in the incidence of myocarditis and pericarditis in COVID-19 recovered patients compared to uninfected matched controls. Further longer-term studies will be needed to estimate the incidence of pericarditis and myocarditis in patients diagnosed with COVID-19.
The original strain, yes. The current COVID is extremely weak and most humans have adapted to it. It's become a minor cold to the vast majority of the human population.
You can't just say some bullshit then post a link and think it backs up what you've said. That paper explores the genetic predisposition to COVID susceptibility and not:
The current COVID is extremely weak and most humans have adapted to it.
Is there like one sentence in that paper you've latched onto that you think justifies your bad take?
I don't think you read enough of the report. It goes into showing those genetic markers of that patents of covid. That means that those groups are who should be far more careful than groups without those genetics.
And you originally posted:

You're jumping to your own incorrect conclusions as that is NOT what the posted article says.
You are correct in regards to 6% of the human population. I'm talking about the 94%.
Did you read the article you posted? I read the overview and intro and really didn't seem to support your statement.
They say the same thing for every variant, but of the 300 deaths a day 90% are 65 and older. It's on par with the flu now.

"I only hear about things from people who talk about things"
It's true that the narcissists love to post about their long COVID too. It's like being a celebrity.
This seems to be mostly debunked, at least regarding to heart conditions:
