You people are just vectors of disease to me

You're overlooking the somewhere between 1% and 30% chance of becoming disabled from Long Covid. I've been unable to sustain vigorous activity since March 2020, and it's dropped me from the workforce. I used to be on my feet making gears 8 hours per day.

There's more to this than the risk of dying. It would be far, far better for my family, financially, if I had died.

As a Daoist how can I not see the good in this? Maybe now now that everyone knows they can suffer a chronic disease they will find a cure for those of us suffering with ME/CFS for all these years?

This is the arrogance that amazes me. Suddenly everyone cares about chronic disease. the ME/CFS community has been crying for help for years. Am I glad this happened to you or anyone? No. But as I said, maybe some good will come out of it.

By the way, if you want to get out of your situation the only answer is nutrition.
