I do think some people are quick to dismiss it. Though I must admit that I'm also not quite sure what is happening here. The problem seems to be very much real, but the link to Covid is tenuous. The only symptom with a plausible causal link is the shortness of breath, and most symptoms of long-covid are the kind of psychosomatic symptoms that, while real, could be a symptom of something else and may have been exacerbated by a heavy illness, rather than caused by it. The other problem is the lack of people not infected by Covid. Pretty much everyone close to a burn-out would experience increasing fatigue, weakness, depression with a very sharp increase at the point where they may have gotten hit by Covid. A bit like how spring always seems to arrive suddenly, simply because an average increase temperature happened to coincide with a sudden change in weather. The lack of any common treatment or known causal link makes it very tricky to get a grasp of the situation. So far the only thing that I think is well established is that it is a problem, but I'd really like to know more about how it came about and what can be done about it.
