Ahem
I asked my surgeon if the hospital (one of the top facilities in the country) modified their ventilation systems in any way. “They only do that in new buildings,” he said. Hmmph.
“(S)cientists who study viral transmission see (a) lesson in the pandemic school closures: Had indoor air been cleaner & safer, they may have been avoidable.(One study found) the incidence of Covid was about 40% lower in schools that improved air quality” https://t.co/WOfA9OLHYI

Of course
And one of the reasons at least some of us tested negative was that the Trump administration restricted test eligibility to those with fevers over 101, specifically to make sure they kept the number of positive tests down. Remember, back then, you had to be referred by a doctor to get tested.
People can get long Covid without testing positive for virus
«We estimated that there were approximately 10 million people in the 1st year of the pandemic in the U.S. who got Covid, got long Covid, but tested negative for Covid» https://t.co/xlzm9I9Ujc

Wonder how this is gonna work out
I mean, there’s no diagnostic test, no treatment protocol, and a lot of doctors don’t even believe long covid exists. All I know is, statistically speaking, all of us are losing years off our life expectancy and no one seems to care:
We’ve sent over 1,500 letters to members of Congress asking them to support the #TreatLongCOVIDAct in a little over a day!
In 30 seconds, you too could help tens of millions with #LongCOVID! Please complete the action below and *widely* share. TY!https://t.co/Fw37gda5yL

The gift that keeps on giving
Everyone understands that insurance companies denying life insurance (not disability insurance, ~life~ insurance) to people with LC means they believe people w covid sequelae (10-20% of the pop and rising) are at increased risk of dying young, right? K, just so we’re all clear. https://t.co/XbqxJO8qiJ
