@shecamewithreceipts: How is this possible? * Because Covid, which isn't a cold, can do damage that doesn't just disappear when the infection clears up. It can affect our heart, brain, blood vessels, immune system, other organs, and how our blood clots even after we "feel better." * When someone no longer has an active infection, they could still develop serious complications from damage that started with Covid months or years down the road. * Studies following people for up to three years have found ongoing cardiovascular risks and, in some groups, a higher risk of death. That risk was especially noticeable in people who were hospitalized with Covid. * Does that mean every heart attack, stroke, or sudden death years later is because of Covid? No. But it does mean we can't assume the effects of a novel virus are over just because someone started testing negative and are out here "living life" again. * I know so many people who are experiencing possible post Covid conditions but portray something different to the public or on social media. I've also had multiple friends, family, and schoolmates suddenly pass from conditions Covid has been linked to in just a short few years. It's personally terrifying to watch. * And that's one reason all of it is so bothersome. Years later, it may be impossible to know whether a previous Covid infection contributed to someone's death, especially when time has passed since their last infection. People just attribute it to something else * Remember, precautions aren't just about preventing severe disease anymore, we also want to prevent long-term consequences by getting fewer infections overall. Well-fitted respirator style masks in public, boosters, cleaner air, testing before gathering & when sick, staying home or masking when ill, and normal good hygiene practices will all help reduce the number of infections and overall risks. * https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-024-02987-8 . https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/ATVBAHA.124.321001 . https://newsroom.clevelandclinic.org/2024/10/09/history-of-covid-19-doubles-long-term-risk-of-heart-attack-stroke-and-death . https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-66270-1 . https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39299002/ . https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-45953-1 . https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7027e1.htm . https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adk5108 ... #covid #covid19 #sick #fluseason #virus ... 📌 It should go without saying that everyone should read the full study, including its findings, methodology, limitations, funding, and potential conflicts of interest. My intention is to share research that I find relevant, informative, and worthy of discussion, not to replace critical thinking or your own examination of the evidence.
