There is no long COVID without COVID, prevention must be the first step
DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOU HAVE LONG COVID TO LEARN ABOUT IT.
INFECTIONS ARE PREVENTABLE.
Talk about long covid with your community, fight eugenics, wear a mask.
LONG COVID IS PREVENTABLE BECAUSE INFECTIONS ARE PREVENTABLE
The best way to fight long COVID is to fight COVID.
Long COVID is an umbrella term that generally refers to symptoms which persist more than three months after a COVID infection. The definition of Long COVID itself has been a subject of debate and advocacy for years now; the term was first coined by patient and advocate Elisa Perego of Lombardy, who found herself struggling to recover from her acute infection in early 2020. Since then, patients have had to continually fight for recognition from the medical community, as resources initially focused heavily on the deadly acute phase of the illness.
Why doesn't the system tell us that covid is dangerous?

We are in a class war, and stopping production due to covid is not an option for capitalist parasites.
There are more than 200 symptoms of Long COVID! neurological: muscle spasms migraines/severe headaches memory loss and mental fog anhedonia, new onset OCD, depression, psychosis. light sensitivity, sound sensitivity vision problems and dissociation POTS/dysautonomia lungs: Difficulty breathing Lung scarring Inflamed lungs Pneumonia heart/blood: Myalgic encephalomyelitis one of the most painful health conditions Extreme fatigue from activity light-sensitive, sound-sensitive, sensory-sensitive most people with MECFS are unable to hold a regular job Myocarditis (inflammation of the heart) Sudden heart attacks Blood clots Cardiomyopathy Stroke High blood pressure EM/SFC. ANTIGENS GIVE FALSE NEGATIVE RESULTS, 50% OF COVID INFECTIONS ARE ASYMPTOMATIC, 10% OF ALL INFECTIONS END IN LONG COVID. YOU WILL NOT SEE THE LONG COVID COMING, IT IS COMPLETELY UNPREDICTABLE!

• Remember: covid is not over, 50% of infections are asymptomatic, minimum 10% of infections end up in long COVID, re-infections wreck us, COVID spreads and moves like cigarette smoke, think of the people around you and you as people who are all day smoking, it becomes more visual to understand how COVID moves.
• There is no way to “train” the immune system because it is not a muscle. there is a common misconception that exposure to harmful germs strengthens the immune system. viral diseases like COVID, flu, measles weaken the immune system, leaving the possibility of lasting damage. The reality is that you don't build your immunity with repeated infections, vaccines strengthen the immune system by teaching it to recognize pathogens without all the risks. Focusing on infection prevention is key.
• Rapid antigen tests give many false negatives.
• Solving the pandemic was never in the cards for the capitalist world.
• Instead, the explicit goal of the ruling class has been to make the pandemic simply disappear from public perception. Any reminder of the existence of a highly-transmissible, highly-dangerous, mass-disabling disease could trigger panic, or worse: organized, militant labor action. Averting this crisis required a careful campaign of culture-crafting; the people themselves needed to become convinced that there was no reason to fight. Consent for protracted mass infection needed to be manufactured.
“The cold truth of the matter is that the motive behind COVID minimization is greed and social control. (…) Solving the pandemic was never in the cards for the capitalist world. Instead, the explicit goal of the ruling class has been to make the pandemic simply disappear from public perception.” Let Them Eat Plague! http://clarion.unity-struggle-unity.org/

![How can we close the knowledge gap in ME/CFS and Long COVID care?
The Ask: We will meet with state and local healthcare leaders and ask for their support for introducing questions on ME/CFS and Long COVID medical exams at the national level.
The Theory of Change: By reaching out to patient safety/regulatory agencies, State Medical Boards, and State Health Leadership/Chief Medical Officers by state, framing ME/CFS education gaps as a patient safety and standard-of-care issue, we will move IACC’s [Infection Associated Chronic Conditions] such as ME/CFS and Long COVID from “optional knowledge” to “standardized knowledge” in clinical care.
Target: State healthcare leadership and patient safety agencies.](https://files.mastodon.social/cache/media_attachments/files/116/196/504/310/456/287/original/65e45957e3e885a2.png)
