There are millions who recovered from a car crash. Are studies of those who sustained injury all propaganda of insurance companies?

How do you know it's not the brain fog telling you everything's going to be ok?

too early to say. there's a spike in cardiovascular disease, on the order of 20x since the pandemic. the commonality is prior covid infection.

Do you have a source for that? Actually interested in reading into this.

i can't seem to find it in my notes right now. i came across the study when looking into the increase of kawasaki syndrome post "asymptomatic" covid infections in children last year. i do have this paper in my notes that speaks of a 30 fold increase in kawasaki diagnoses: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-020-0959-4

since then, we now call this post-covid complication MIS-C and there's increasing coverage and study into it. i do recall coming across another study looking at a more broad range of age groups and noting a 20 fold increase of cardiovascular diagnoses.

overall, we still have a lot to learn about this virus.
