I'm not sure it has been shown that you can't get it at later infections and anecdotally from friends and family (I know) that doesn't seem to be the case.
I'm also not sure if everyone notices changes if they are mild enough. I am fairly sure that a recent cold was COVID (because I infected my wife who lost her sense of taste) and it took me a while to notice my sense of smell is significantly worse. Too early to describe it as long COVID and certainly as annoyances go, this is as mild as it gets (if it is all there is).
- cjbgkagh 4y agoMore people do get it from multiple infections but it is still a minority and it seems to be the same genetic predispositions. I have hEDS which comes with ME/CFS, probably the best way to explain it is that it feels like burnout that doesn’t go away. LongCovid has become an overloaded term with multiple PASC and acute organ damage being added. That’s slowly being fixed with PEM being the defining characteristic. Basically if you exercise as hard as you can a normal person can repeat in two days, a LongCovid/ME/CFS person cannot get close.
