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.
