100 things that Covid can do.
SC2 can hang in the air for over 12 hrs in aerosols. The size of a SARS-CoV-2 particle ranges from 0.07 μm to 0.09 μm.
An aerosol particle the size of 1μm or less takes 12.2 hours to fall to the ground from a height of 1.5m.

Aerosols come from people just breathing; possibly hours before you enter an empty room, as explained here:

The majority of SC2 transmission is before symptoms present.
In this study 32.4% of people didn't know that they had the virus when infected.

This paper shows that 37% of children aged 0-4 years who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 were asymptomatic but still had a high viral load.

Multiple studies have shown cognitive impairment even after a mild initial infection.
A study of 1.28 million people, up to 2 years after Covid, w/ matched controls: "The persisting increased risk of post-COVID cognitive deficit, dementia, psychotic disorders, and epilepsy or seizures" and "similar during the delta and omicron waves"

In another study with sample size of about 300k people who had experienced mild acute Covid, 161,785 reported concentration/memory problems 1-6 mths later & 149,618 of those people still reported that symptom 6-12 mths later.

An analysis of nearly one million Danish health records that found COVID-19 patients were more likely to be diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, as well as Alzheimer’s disease, stroke and bleeding in the brain.

The effects on the brain actually changes people's behaviour: "SARS-CoV-2 infection affects cognitive processes to induce ‘brain fog’ and results in behavioural changes that favour viral survival and propagation."

In fact, a Covid infection makes a person more trusting of strangers, and therefore more sociable, helping to spread the virus.

Covid ages arteries, even in young healthy people after a mild initial infection.

The virus actually replicates inside the arterial tissue.
"because the researchers found the virus infects and replicates in the arteries no matter the levels of plaque, the findings could have broader implications for anybody who gets COVID-19"nih.gov/news-events/ne…

Everyone infected with COVID is at higher risk for heart issues—including clots, inflammation, and arrhythmia, and this is a risk that persists even in relatively healthy people long after the illness has passed.

Not only does a mild Covid infection cause vascular degeneration and arterial stiffness, but it also appears that both of these conditions are degenerative. "The longer the period from COVID-19 infection the worse the vascular impairment...."

Loss of T-cells raises the chance of cancer later in life as there are fewer T-cells to clean out pre cancerous cells. This study shows that it does in fact increase the risk of cancer.

And this: “Our findings suggest that once T cells become exhausted, they remain fundamentally ‘wired’ to be exhausted—thus it may be hard to get them to become effective virus- and cancer-fighters again"

Reinfection can happen very quickly: "Our findings indicate that the time between confirmed primary infections and reinfections with different Omicron subvariants is frequently shorter than the 90-day definition of reinfections."

In fact, there is a documented case of a person being reinfected by different Omicron sublineages just 16 days apart.
