About 1 in 10 of all people, less so for the young most likely, but let's say it's 1/100, it would still be way worse. Watch Myles Garrett gasping for air after running, and that's a young world class athlete.https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/the-tragedy-of-the-post-covid-long-haulers-2020101521173 …

So that harvard health blog appears to cite only one actual study, where they interviewed people 2-3 weeks after positive PCR test results and found that 35% still hadn't returned to baseline health. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7392393/ …pic.twitter.com/yoznVnUsPi

All the long covid stuff is like this, vague inflated claims gathering the usual pool of fibromyalgia-adjacent symptoms under the umbrella of "long covid" and padding out the numbers with people who still have lingering feelings of exhaustion 2-3 weeks later ...

That's 2-3 weeks after testing negative for the virus, and it's not it's not lingering feelings, it's "I have to take a break walking up the stairs". Myles Garrett gets lung therapy 4x daily for the sake of his livelihood, but you say he just has fibromyalgia? Please.

No, 2-3 weeks after a positive test result. And we all have anecdotes, but if you think 1/10 people are on lasting oxygen therapy after recovering from Corona, you are wrong.pic.twitter.com/WWrEahO2x2

What myles garrett is going through is not the same as hand pain that bored housewives get, that's my point. Fibromyalgia doesnt cause breathing problems as far as I know.

trying again ... Long Covid is more than pulmonary damage from Corona infections (caused by viral pneumonia). People citing big numbers, like you, are talking mostly about chronic-fatigue-syndrome fibromyalgia-adjacent symptoms. Otherwise you don't have big scary numbers.

I guess I associate chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia as overblown diseases when they seem to happen to upper middle class people who dont like to work, but in the context of go getters who suddenly can't do chores normally, it is indeed very scary.
