The burden of Long Covid “so large as to be unfathomable”

Also, millions upon millions of people contracted COVID. Hence a higher number of long-COVID cases. Research into this is a very good thing so.

That the media is over selling it, sure they do. Heck, we had almost two straight days of life coverage of lionesse-turned-out-to-be-a-boar in Germany. At the same time there were elections in Spain, a vote on the justice system in Israel, among other things. Those two alone could have deserved some well researched articles and background pieces. But I digress...

Sure. I also have a young daughter in daycare so I've had a cold about every 2 months for the past year and a half. Obviously those haven't been as bad as the two times I had COVID, but we don't really know if that means long term effects are less likely...and people get a lot of colds.

Good news is, as soon as kids grow out of those childcare and pre-school disease magnet super spreader phase, so do you. The cycle seems to repeat with each child so...
