The exact nature of long COVID is still coming to light, but we just got some of the best evidence yet that this debilitating condition stems from a brain injury.

    Interesting. I had an increase in fungal presence, but I figured it was excessive boot usage due to starting motorcycle riding 5 months after my first covid infection. It clear near winter for the most part but I wonder if I just hadn’t noticed the initial spread.

      Very possible. There was a group of podiatrists who wanted to add athletes foot as a primary symptom of COVID. I can’t seem to find their letter right now. Google really sucks these days.

      It’s a serious virus. People don’t realize. Just because most people fight it off like a flu doesn’t mean is was as easy on your body for it to do so. Imagine if we had a president that didn’t treat it as a joke. Might be a few million people still alive.

          Nah, it was a letter signed by a bunch of doctors to some medical society or another.
