You could read https://theconversation.com/why-scrapping-the-term-long-covid-would-be-harmful-for-people-with-the-condition-225880 https://theconversation.com/why-scrapping-the-term-long-covi... which meets these claims head on and highlights why the research is faulty. The Guardian published https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/15/long-covid-symptoms-cdc https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/15/long-covid-sym... as well which is more truthful.
And of course, if you had not relied on a politically motivated, faulty, non-peer reviewed study you would find the following problems caused by Long Covid:
viral persistence https://www.nature.com/articles/s41590-023-01601-2 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41590-023-01601-2
Microclots in the blood and endothelial dysfunction (leading to vascular problems, organ failure, cardiac events) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8883497/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8883497/
Immune system dysregulation https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adg7942 https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adg7942
Mitochondrial damage https://www.news-medical.net/news/20240104/Study-identifies-mitochondrial-dysfunction-as-cause-of-long-COVID-fatigue.aspx https://www.news-medical.net/news/20240104/Study-identifies-...
And finally yes, blood-brain barrier disruption https://www.nature.com/articles/s41593-024-01576-9 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41593-024-01576-9
- abrookewood 2y agoThanks for pointing those out. Note I don't really have an opinion either way, just reporting the study.
- chx 2y agoThe next thing you need to read is How the press manufactured consent for never-ending COVID reinfections https://www.thegauntlet.news/p/how-the-press-manufactured-consent https://www.thegauntlet.news/p/how-the-press-manufactured-co... and then stop spreading harmful propaganda. That's what you are doing, not "reporting a study", faugh!
