    Long Covid solved ? Of course there are better explanations than imagining, for the first time, a virus so pernicious that it drags down nearly an entire populace either by killing people or making them sick forever. Tendered as a better explanation - the effects of psychological stress …

    Scientists may have finally found the cause of long Covid: Low iron levels after infection 'might be trigger of poorly-understood illness' | Daily Mail Online

    That guy is a gifted. Check out his merchandise page on his account. All he does is throw out red meat for his followers. It's all angry, hate-filled rhetoric and false equivalents that they lap up. I'll say that he has struck out a couple of times comparing Trump to Jesus where he received some backlash.

    My reaction when they take for granted that it exists at all.

    I think we are to the point where the only people who believe in “long Covid” are 5% still taking boosters…

    I have a friend who founded a Long Covid support group. She said she got it in Dec 2019. I asked her how she knew it was Covid. She said, “I just know it.”

    Any sickness may cause long “said sickness”. The good news is most people understand this. But there is that 5% still lining up for their boost. And a couple more percents that have decided they can now put people at risk and have stopped getting boosted like normal people did a long time ago but still want to peddle nonsense line long covid…:):D:devil:

    A friend of mine who’s physician confirmed that her first Moderna was likely the cause of her GBS is going to read this and want to sue someone’s ass.

    The cover up for side effects is massive. I truly hope one day some get a piece of the billions given to Pfizer and Moderna for the harm caused…

    Or just fatties. Only 2-3/10 were typically considered Southern states.

    Alternatively: Long Covid sufferers may be people who want to squeeze the maximum from the pandemic of the century.

    Remember that, prior to what I call pan-panic, there were two groups of Americans: (1) Americans who were gluten-sensitive and (2) Americans who wanted to be gluten-sensitive.

    I finally have something to post to this discussion!! Crazy German guy who received 217 vaccinations for “private reasons”!!

    What happened after a man got 217 coronavirus shots (msn.com)

    "German researchers have examined a “hypervaccinated” man they say received more than 200 coronavirus shots without any noticeable side effects or harm to his immune system.

    Their findings, published Monday in the Lancet Infectious Diseases, a medical journal, indicate that coronavirus vaccines have a “good degree of tolerability,” the researchers said, although they noted this was an isolated case of “extraordinary hypervaccination.”

    +++

    "Going into the study, the researchers had speculated that having so many shots could cause his immune system to become fatigued. Vaccines create immune memory cells that are on standby, ready to rapidly activate the body’s defenses in the event of an infection.

    But in fact, the researchers found that the man had more of these immune cells — known as T-cells — than a control group that had received the standard three-dose vaccine regimen. They also did not detect any fatigue in these cells, which they said were just as effective as those of people who had received a typical number of coronavirus shots."

    Niggling issues with study include unproven entities such as SARS-CoV2 and specific antibodies.

    Larger issue: how seriously to regard a story which leads with “A German man claims.”

    Regardless, grant that a man took 217 jabs and lived. An unknown and possibly large number of people took one and died.

    If one person has died of a vaccine it has out-killed a computer printout. In other words, the thing people are vaccinating for is complete BS.

    The biggest issue I have with the MAGAT cult is science denial.
