Researchers from a university in Brazil found that COVID increased the risk of having an ischemic stroke, or stroke caused by a blood vessel blockage, by 76%.

It’s hard to imagine reading that and not trying to avoid reinfection.

As time goes on, I realize that either I’m a bad example of what LongCOVID can be, or advocacy is and I do feel a need to eventually back away. For example;

I specifically use the word “flare” which is NOT interchangeable with “crash,” but unfortunately people assume they are…
The way I’d describe flare ups would be like an extreme, sudden immune response. It’s like an engine going from dormant to 100Mph. I’ll feel a deep bruising in my thighs, down to the bone, my eyes get glassy and watery and I feel like I’m sort of inflamed and hyper stimulated..
It’s almost like feeling infected all over again or being poisoned. It’s really painful and sudden but it doesn’t do anything to my energy or baseline etc.

I’ve had this happen when I’m actually in work meetings or zoom calls. Can you imagine your eyes turning glassy while…

I know most of you don’t have LongCOVID and are avoiding it like the plague it is. Trust me, you’re right, the deniers are wrong.

Just had a flare up from hell the past 2 days and NOTHING touched it. Out of nowhere, it just stopped like I’m back in 2020. It’s so bizarre…
To go from one extreme to the other, plays harsh tricks with your mind and thought process. I’m built for it and certainly not complaining because I know a lot of people don’t even get 5 mins of remission, but it’s surreal. I’d say I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy but…
That would be a lie, those days are gone. Some of the people on this app can get fucked and touch grass, whichever order they prefer. That they claim “COVID is over” and life has moved on, yet always find themselves looking at and trolling ppl with LongCOVID is ironic, and…

In 2022, an economic researcher for the Federal Reserve Bank of New York wrote an article about LongCOVID causing a surge in disability and becoming a workplace fixture. Citing Census Bureau data, the CDC and NIH, he suggested future COVID waves could continue disabling workers. FEDERAL RESERVE BANK of NEW YORK Liberty Street Economics OCTOBER 20, 2022 Long COVID Appears to Have Led to a Surge of the Disabled in the Workplace Richard Deitz Chart showing surge in disability among us workers starting in 2020 with the COVID pandemic.
His data and suggestion back in 2022, continues to correlate with what is seen today.

Same thing for the general population, 16 years and older per their last update.

New study in The Lancet Infectious Disease analyzing 460,000 patients across 40 US hospitals found that children’s risk of developing LongCOVID more than doubled upon reinfection, with no significant variation by vaccination status. New Study Indicates Children's Risk of Long COVID Could Double Following a Second Infection - The Lancet Infectious Diseases BY BIOENGINEER - October 1, 2025
“From a public health perspective, these findings are critical. They reinforce the imperative to maintain & strengthen vaccinations tailored to children & adolescents, as well as advocate for continued adherence to protective practices including masking.”

Anecdotally, the LongCOVID patients who seem to be making the most gains or close to recovery, are the ones taking antivirals, mAbs and maybe even Ivig.

I’ve been reluctant to discuss my antiviral trial because I wanted to give it time and not get my or anyone else’s hopes’ up.
But with that being said, I figured I’d share a little in that we decided to continue on my 4th month and that I’ll stay on this combo indefinitely.

Unfortunately, since we don’t have any validated, available biomarkers or a viral load test, there aren’t any ways to measure…
And I’ve been pretty consistent in saying that I don’t feel one specific thing, but I have definitely reported to my PCP that I’ve been much more normal in recent weeks, so I took a look at something else.

I wear an Iwatch and a wearable to monitor everything and here is what..

Moroccan researchers landmark study tracking SARS2 mutations through 2021-2024, found Omicron carries up to 89 mutations helping adapt to escape immune response, more transmissible, with nearly 8 in 10 patients developing significant symptoms particularly in the 20-40 age group. Moroccan Scientists Map COVID-19 Mutations in Breakthrough Study The Moroccan team analyzed 235 patient samples, providing a precise view of how the virus changed over time within the country. Firdaous NaimbyFirdaous Naim Aug, 22, 2025 Morocco tour packages
“This shows how remarkably the virus adapts to escape immune defenses.”

“Although Delta was more likely to cause severe illness, Omicron proved more transmissible.”
moroccoworldnews.com/2025/08/252140…
The important thing to remember, and likely what most see anyway, is that despite the authors saying the virus doesn’t respect borders, this only happened in Morocco/Africa, because us Americans have special immune systems and blood vessels built to withstand repeat infections.
