“There are now growing reports with evidence of neurological and dysexecutive syndromes subsequent to interference of brain functions in acute patients with COVID-19, leading to variable aphasia-like symptoms.”

The Covid-aware community has been right all along. About need for concern, about MRNA limitations and "breakthrough" infections (that many of us, myself included, were suspended for tweeting relevant data about in 2021,) about post-acute organ, brain and system damage...
About fallacies of "herd immunity," "kids not transmitting" and "kids not being harmed by" Covid, about fallacy of "immunity debt," about mask science (masks work) and clean air science (ventilation helps,) about SarsCov2 being about MUCH more than acute infection...
About viral persistence (SarsCov2 makes viral reservoirs in the body,) about Paxlovid limitations and resistance. About Covid minimizing coming from a government reluctant to be accountable and business willing to trade American life and long-term health for short term profit...

Y'all...a friend's son told her his roommate is being turned down for sperm donation. Had Covid in January, had donated several times last year.😳

This is first I've heard about in real world but will link related info below.

You can't assume that sore throat or fever is "a cold" or "flu" until you test negative for Covid 3 days in a row on a rapid test or once on a PCR. (And RATs might still miss it.) Severity of acute Covid is irrelevant. Any Covid infection commonly causes damage seen LATER.
If you want to take Paxlovid you must do it within 5 days of symptom onset, and there are several common drugs you will have to stop first, so timing is everything.
Covid is far more contagious than common cold or flu. Do not go out spreading infections--your "mild" could be your friend's severe, either during acute phase or later via cardiovascular event, neuro damage, new onset diabetes or Long Covid.

Yes, it's a bummer to know all this.

I understand the intellectual argument about not "debating" science, but until folks are informed about many aspects of this pandemic, from vaccine safety (and limitations) to post-acute Covid organ/system damage (and cardiovascular events,) the void will be filled with misinfo.
I know many liberals now smitten with RFK Jr, who also believe vaccines have caused all the pandemic strokes, embolisms and cardiac arrests. Why? Because this admin will not address post-acute Covid damage OR vaccine adverse effects. Meanwhile the right controls the narrative.
The "we won't dignify this with a response" effect reminds me of when kids are repeatedly told not to question what parents say. These kids ALWAYS get terrible "information" elsewhere.

I'm a big believer in Covid-awareness education, which is largely missing from all sides.

The more I learn of post-acute Covid reactivating other infections, the more I want to avoid it. I know people with reactivated herpes viruses--HSV1, Varicella Zoster (recurrent shingles,) EBV. Also new onset cervical dysplasia (HPV.) Lupus worse. New MS. Doctors are "baffled."
Until clinicians catch up with research, and until we have have new antiviral standards of care to address this issue, it would benefit everyone to limit the number of times you get Covid.

"the pandemic is not over. It’s much worse than you have been led to believe. And unless you’ve spent the past several years reading scientific studies on the subject, it can be hard to convey just how wrong the public perception of COVID really is..." clarion.unity-struggle-unity.org/let-them-eat-p…
"It’s not your 'fault' if you aren’t a virologist, immunologist, epidemiologist, or evolutionary biologist. It’s the job of experts and trusted voices to convey the truth and give you guidance. Not only have they failed at this..."
"...they have engaged in an active disinformation campaign dedicated to making the pandemic 'disappear.'"
