It’s probably bad for a mod to be posting this. To be fair, I’m still 100% doing covid precautions, including N95 masking and boosters. I’m still actively very covid conscious.

I’m aware that there hasn’t been much new research on long covid numbers after 2024, or at least nothing that I can find. Trump taking over the presidency hasn’t helped. I’m very much a sciency kind of person, and I could always pinpoint a study as to why I’m still masking and being extra cautious.

Obviously caring about the vulnerable is still a very good reason to keep being cautious.

A lot of libs have been saying that “well we’re all immune from multiple infections, so long covid is over”. Clearly the opinions of libs should be discarded, and their thoughts are anecdotal af, but still I would appreciate some facts to keep me cautious through this difficult time.

BTW CDC pulse survey data still shows that around 10% of US adults have long covid.
