Comment on Researchers discover physical cause of long Covid tirednessparent

Comments

Yes, but isn't it more like if there is perhaps a factor X you don't belong to the 1/8 risk group that the chances that with subsequent infections you get long covid-19 is smaller (or near zero)? It's likely that this factor exists as lots of people got infected multiple times and not everybody has long covid-19. Is it a matter of rolling those odds every time for everyone or is that only for 1 in 8 people or would they get long covid-19 100% after each infection. Would mRNA vaccines adequately protect this group from long COVID-19?

AFAIK, gene links have only been found for persistent cough and shortness of breath, but not other long covid symptoms.

Protection from vaccines has ranged (IIRC) from none to about 50% reduction in probability

Could it be a side effect of some treatment, similar to contagan? You take something to reduce side-effects, covi let's it into cells where it poisons the mitochondria?
