The latest studies show that being vaccinated only reduces the risk of Long Covid by something like 20%. So while the vaccine is good for reducing acute sequelae -- much less hospitalization -- it's not doing that much for the folks who have a seemingly mild case, feel fine after a couple weeks, go back to work....and then 3 months down the line they start feeling awful. Brain scans of folks with Long Covid are showing brain shrinkage. PET scans are showing many areas of the brain affected. The only prevention for Long Covid is not getting Covid, and that's still mostly achieved the old-fashioned way with a combination of high-quality masks, ventilation, and air fitration. The Texas Infectious Disease clinic has been using elastomeric respirators for years with their TB patients -- that's honestly the standard all healthcare workers should be using right now.
