    Between 40-60% of people have some form of permanent brain damage and 70-80% have long covid problems

    Wait what? I’m with you on masking etc., but those numbers seem a bit high, where did you get those from?

      Long covid is generally definied as having any symptoms persisiting greater than 6 (?IIRC) months after first detection, so having a niggling cough that hung around that long would count as long covid. Some form of permenant brain damage is incredibly vague and sounds like it would apply to a night of heavy drinking.
