    That’s what makes it so scary. I didn’t have long COVID and I was feeling alright about the “cold” but it took a month for me to feel like I had the same amount of energy I had before catching it.

    About the younger ones… I don’t want to think about it but I can’t help thinking about my nephews. Some of them got COVID two or even three times.

    The studies I’ve read aren’t too optimistic about their future health. I hope they’re wrong.

      I’m lucky to not have had it at all yet (I’m lying, it’s not luck, even without COVID that 6-feet distancing rule was already part of my normal life because I can’t handle being touched by anyone XD).

      My mom however is now on her third or fourth :|

          Seems she’s getting over it rather quick this time. 2 days of puking, then some cough, week later almost all clear.

          I have noticed though, from her previous infections, her incredible memory has deteriorated quite a bit.

          It’s a good thing we’re in Europe and they go their COVID shots as one of the first on the planet (65+ers here were prioritized above all others, mostly because there were some massive infections in elderly homes that wiped out their entire populations, one of the worst being the home near where I live, that is now closed, because pretty much everyone died).
