Over 90% of those deaths are Americans.

    Indeed… I know somebody who else has it and is just energy starved like crazy. If she goes anywhere she just crashes in the evening and needs 3 days to recover. Doing anything is basically wondering whether its worth it to crash for 2 days afterwards…

    And the research for it has dropped. So its basically an “I hope it passes this month” by the doctors as there’s no actual treatment (apparently).

      Sounds like ME/CFS. I have that, it sucks dick. Had to go to the doctor in-person on Monday, and it fucked me up until today (Saturday). Normally I do phone consult, but The System says No sometimes. The only treatment is “try not to trigger symptoms and hope you recover” like it’s the 1800’s 😂 like at least give me opium or something

        Oh that’s good to hear!

        I’ve heard it from them, but maybe there’s not that much being done in our area/country to find a solution for long covid ( or maybe there is and we just don’t know about it/have any breakthroughs ).
