Poor girl, crazy how many people are ignoring this, millions are being disabled and many millions more to come, even those who have had previous covid infections can develop it on their 3rd or 4th bout of covid. True madness to ignore the rise of a mass chronic illness we know nothing about. Was interesting to see a video of those who had dismissed long covid only to develop it themselves, their views very quickly changed then...
