as someone who definitely had and suffered through long COVID, I would like to know what you think you are accomplishing by making false claims like this.

do you think you're being edgy? what possible work is your ignorant comment doing?

It took me about six months to recover from Covid post infection. I got it in the early weeks of the pandemic; it took from around mid April to October of 2020 to get back to normal. I've felt fine since. I don't know what exactly they're calling long Covid these days, but the parent comment is pretty obviously ignorant.

Like the other guy said, "long everything" exists, and so-called "long Covid" isn't any different than long complications from garden-variety colds and flus.

Attributing special powers specifically to Covid is just attention-seeking behavior.

It does exist. Probably has the same symptoms as any other virus pneumonia.

Long-everything exists, we just don't talk about it. I've had multiple colds that lasted 2-3 months, and one that didn't completely resolve for almost 6 months.

I'm guessing they didn't damage your organs, though.

How could I know? My lungs aren't so great, so maybe they did.

Also, the WHO definition of "Long COVID" is

“Post-COVID-19 condition occurs in individuals with a history of probable or confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, usually 3 months from the onset of COVID-19 with symptoms that last for at least 2 months and cannot be explained by an alternative diagnosis.”

That's any symptoms, not necessarily organ damage.

Really? I don't think so:
