Do You REALLY Want Long COVID?

Tara Cobham at The Independent has written about "The ‘wrecked’ lives of forgotten long Covid sufferers"

Those who claim that "COVID is over" ought to read about some of the people who have been suffering for years:

"Nearly four years since the start of the coronavirus outbreak, you could be forgiven for believing the pandemic is behind us. But for many, it feels far from over.

"Close to two million people face a daily battle with debilitating symptoms of long Covid – the lasting symptoms of the virus that remain after the infection is gone – with some now housebound, unable to walk and even partially blind.

And to make  matters worse,  "'In their words, they feel ‘forgotten, unheard, disbelieved, isolated, unemployed, disabled, immobile’. The emotional cost of dealing with little or no medical support is devastating,' said Dr House, who has long Covid, along with her husband, after both caught the virus from a neighbour they were helping in March 2020."

Do YOU want to live like that? Then get vaccinated, wear a mask, and protect yourself and others instead of selfishly risking lives!
