"We’re done with the pandemic, right? Well, heads up: it’s still here, and it’s
quietly causing havoc in ways you likely aren’t even aware of. Getting COVID
repeatedly – including asymptomatic infections you never knew you had — can
damage your health for years to come and dramatically increase your chances of
Long COVID. Low vaccination rates, waning immunity, and ditching precautions
have left us wide open to a host of serious problems that are entirely
avoidable.
Did you know that COVID is nothing like the flu, and yearly vaccines can’t keep
up with its rapid mutations? Or that even mild infections have been shown to
cause a drop in IQ points? How about the fact that 90% of Long COVID cases come
from mild or asymptomatic infections? Or that repeat infections can make you
susceptible to heart attacks, strokes, and diseases like measles, Polio, or
Diabetes? Did you know that, at the current rate of infections,
most Americans
may end up with some form of Long COVID?
Probably not, because nobody’s telling you."
