One COVID infection per year might sound manageable, but the simplest projections tell a different story.

With a 13% risk of LC per infection, about 1/3 could already be affected. A line graph titled "Projected Cumulative Long COVID Risk by Infection Rate (5-10% Initial Infection Rate in 2022)" shows the projected cumulative risk of developing Long COVID over time based on different infection rates per year. The x-axis represents years from 2022 to 2032, while the y-axis represents cumulative Long COVID risk as a percentage.  Three lines depict different infection rates:  Green line: 0.5 infections per year, reaching 50.6% by 2032. Blue line: 1 infection per year, reaching 75.4% by 2032. Red line: 3 infections per year, reaching 98.5% by 2032. Each line has...
This projection isn't just numbers it's grounded in data from reputable sources like the @INSPQ, @stats_canada, and @COVIDimmunityTF.

Estimates that #longcovid costs per case range from CAD $1,675-7,340 within the initial year.

If these expenses are recurring, these losses are about equal to losing around 12% of their after-tax income in Canada.

LC is making us poor.

The reactions to @VitalikButerin’s mask pic are fascinating. Why are so many in crypto averse to COVID caution?
Visionaries like Vitalik are often ahead of the curve. They adopt new trends before the rest of us catch on. Wearing a mask now is part of that forward-thinking mindset.
Instead of assuming Vitalik’s lost it, maybe ask: Does my reality map out as well as I think? What if he sees something I don’t?

Feeling overwhelmed and grieving the loss of almost everything good in my life.

2023 has been the worst year yet economically and socially.

Being a shielder has taken its toll. Nothing is stable, poor AF. Career feels toast.
One thing I haven't shared is shortly after leaving a place last Jan due to roommates harrasment, like bringing over company and purposely turning off the air purifiers in the shared space then making a big deal of it, I moved then something else happened.
I found a room in a new place in what I thought was a good area, but within a month one of the roommates stabbed someone in the house while I was home.

And they then broke into the home a few days later after getting out of jail. So suddenly this place was super sketchy.

This graph is a time series projection of #longCOVID rates assuming 1-3 infections yearly.

This will lead to a tipping point around 2025. The implications are profound, affecting society and the economy. Immediate action is needed to mitigate the long-term impact. #Collapse

I'm not the only one projecting this possibility as has been pointed out by @TWHM4
All my models are pointing to circa 2025 being important😬

A 🧵 of immune cell panels of those infected with #SARS2 and those with #LongCOVID showing potentially serious damage to immune systems.
All over, it seems those with access to testing are reporting similar results in their panels

Seems like many are still unaware or downplaying the immune imbalance triggered by SARS infections 😲 We all have friends constantly battling respiratory issues, but remember, the plural of anecdote is not data.

So here is a mega thread of sick posts
Substantial evidence is mounting to corroborate the phenomenon commonly referred to as the #LeonardiEffect

Are there any sociologists on this site giving insight into the absurd world we are living in? People really are acting like its over while being actively sick.

It's wild!
I think to myself, "maybe I'm wrong" then I see a post or get text from someone saying they are sick with COVID.
I think to myself "I must be crazy", but then I see the CDC opens probe after 35 test positive for covid following CDC conference 😥
