An interesting paper that just came out on long COVID in non-hospitalized people – the incidence of any long COVID symptoms was 5.4% in people with COVID-19 vs 4.4% in an uninfected control https://t.co/C0kNyDFyYc

LOL. So, Long Covid matches about what I thought it’d be, and is roughly about what it is for all other similar viruses (predictably).
Oh, also worth noting that the rates of symptoms that we might consider seriously impacting daily life were really quite low in this cohort. For example, fatigue was reported in 0.46% of COVID-19 patients vs 0.24% of controls, brain fog was 0.06% vs 0.04%

That’s just what I expected to see.
