      Tbh a lot of people with long covid do recover in like 6 months to 2 years. I know quite a lot of people who have had it and they all said that they started recovering after 6 months and most of them are almost fully recovered now.

      Obviously it’s still horrible to be sick for so long so avoiding spread always the best option.

        I had Long COVID. (Though, not as long as other people.) I had difficulty breathing for 2-4 months, brain fog for 4-5 months, and a low-grade fever of 99.8 F (37.5 C) for nearly a whole year. Shit sucked. I basically don’t remember anything that happened during those months I had brain fog.

        This was after 3 vaccines. I can’t imagine how bad it would’ve been if I didn’t have them. During the worst part of the infection, my fever was constantly on the tipping point of “go to the ER” fever.

          That sucks. I still have a lot of brain fog after 6 months of long covid. I have trouble remembering what I did a week ago. Was finishing my studies before getting covid but have and will be out of the running for a while because I can’t concentrate for more than an hour.
