What I’m wondering: people talk about long term effects and we have 9-10 months of data. I remember I had a cold couple of years back and couldn’t taste nor smell for 3 months or so. What about long term effects for people who have gone through other diseases like the flu for example?

- djsumdog 6y agoIt's just way to early for us to be talking about "longer term" effects. In my 20s, I remember it took nearly a month to recovery from pneumonia. I was lucky. Another friend of mine got pneumonia from a viral infection and was out three months and had to take an Incomplete on all his classes for the semester. All infections have the potential for permanent effects, but they're often not common. An interesting example is Lymes Disease. We still don't understand long term Lymes, but for some reason, the immune system continues to react long after the infection is gone.
