No such thing as ‘long COVID,’ health agency says in shock claim: ‘Unnecessary fear’

The term “long COVID” should be tossed aside like a stack of expired N95 masks — that’s according to health experts in one country, who found that symptoms of those reportedly suffering a year on weren’t any different than your typical virus, such as the flu.
Government-backed medical researchers in Australia say it’s time to stop using the fear-inducing phrase, which became popular after high volumes of people testing positive for COVID-19 led to a surge in generally non-severe “virus fatigue symptoms” that would normally have gone unnoticed, South West News Service reported.

“We believe it is time to stop using terms like ‘Long COVID’,” said Dr. John Gerrard, Queensland’s Chief Health Officer, who oversaw the newly-released study.
“They wrongly imply there is something unique and exceptional about longer term symptoms associated with this virus,” he explained.

Thank you.
It's just a cold virus.
A new variety maybe, but still a cold virus.
We were never going to stop it.
It's wasn't going to kill everyone.

Long covid is a coping mechanism for those that flunked the IQ test of covid-19.
What's amazing is this came form Australia, the only western country to go full nazi. They built camps, hunted down natives in order to force jab, quarantined and detained foreigners who wouldn't comply. Australia went back to it's beginning, a prison colony. Not to mention that they coordinated with the cia and fbi to spy on Americans.
Eff Australia.

A lot of people still should
Because if not we will go right back down the rabbit hole of this crap
It was nothing more than worldwide overreach at our freedoms
People like my wife, who is an icu nurse, were vilified for staying facts that they saw and treated on a daily basis. Then they were ordered to shut up and take a vaccine that doesn’t work or lose their job.
Never forget this bullshite and overreach

Fyi long Covid is observable via EEG. Saying it doesn't exist dismisses physical evidence.

Long COVID is hypochondria.

Biggest load of horse shite ever put on the American people. The whole goal was simply to remove Trump. The democrats would kill their own families if it guaranteed power.

Not in a couple of years, it hasnt. Those EEGs were from patients still on ventilators. NO ONE is doing EEGs as part of covid follow-ups today

We performed a systematic review of the literature to synthesize the data on EEG findings in COVID-19. Frontal EEG patterns are reported to be a characteristic finding in COVID-19 encephalopathy. Although several reports of EEG abnormalities are available, there is lack of clarity about typical findings.
Patient level details of prior EEG findings and MRI abnormalities were not reported in studies, preventing further EEG-MRI correlation.

Long Covid is now a Federally recognized disability in the U.S.
It's real. Multiple studies show it's impact on various conditions and it's going to get worse as it affects children who don't always show Covid symptoms, but have contracted it.

I’m no covid denier per se, but I do believe the long covid concept, as a general matter, is a pile of bullarkey.

My brother had covid bad, but pulled through after 2 weeks in the hospital. In the 3 years since, he's slowly lost 50 pounds, even though he isn't exercising or dieting more. He doesn't even look like the same man. All the docs could tell him were the covid is doing it

Long covid is probably more prevalent in women and people prone to drama. It may exist, but the people I know "suffering" from it usually are the ones who catch every trendy malady

Long COVID is an excuse fats use when they're out of breath after climbing a flight of stairs.
