I've posted elsewhere but my wife (40yo and in great health) has been suffering from a range of issues since her infection over 100 days ago. She cant climb stairs without getting out of breath. Her covid symptoms for the first two weeks was relatively mild. She is in a Slack group with over 7000 others. Predominantly women over 40 or men 2o to 50. All with serious long term issues after getting covid. It is a small number, but not small enough to wave away.

Broadly speaking under-20s are pretty much unaffected. 20-40 aren’t particularly affected either if in good health and without comorbidities. 40+ can be quite seriously affected and over 65s it’s a double digit risk of death. It’s super non-linear. It seems speculatively like this is due to age-linked expression of ACE2.
