Long COVID's link to suicide: Scientists warn of hidden crisis

So sad. It is important to remember that it isn't a 0 sum game. Its not only either you survive Covid or you don't. The issue of long covid is something that has to enter the conversation more.

To the necessary question: What is happening with Long COVID here in Japan?

I'm yet to meet someone with the so called 'Long Covid'. I personally think that those who say that are suffering from it just have chronic fatigue or mental anguish from all the corona circus.

And yet the people that actually are experts in human health clearly say it is a very important concern for the public health and directly correlated with the infection, no matter the measures that are in place or not against ti.

I think it is clear who is much more likely to be correct about it.

My adult son has had a long covid for more than one year. It's very real.

If you're so sure you're right about this, why don't you argue about it with the doctors who actually treat patients with these drugs

Why? do you think antibiotics work against the common cold? because many doctors prescribe them for this, against which they have absolutely no use either.

The experts have the scientific proof to demonstrate the drugs are useless against covid, those that insist on using them have provided exactly zero scientific argument apart from their own lack of professional qualifications (when they pretend their very limited and biased personal experience somehow counts as scientific evidence when it obviously don't).

Can you provide the scientific evidence that the medical consensus is wrong? because it is you the one saying it, not any imaginary doctor that you think should defend what you believe.

There is absolutely nothing banned that would have helped with this situation, things like HCQ or ivermectin have been demonstrated to be absolutely useless against covid no matter the dose or timing of use, there is no longer any reasonable doubt about this, insisting on this is just disinformation.

If you're so sure you're right about this, why don't you argue about it with the doctors who actually treat patients with these drugs, and the patients themselves, about their effectiveness instead of pushing a narrative that's becoming more laughably false every day? Simply smearing something as disinformation doesn't make it so.

So nobody knows what it really is then or even if it really exists

Nothing in your quote can be interpreted this way, being difficult to diagnose is completely different from not knowing if it exist. It just mean it can be presented in different ways but the medical consensus is clear, the syndrome is real and a very important public health problem.

An article already known to have unethical manipulations of the data from a group that already retracted a similar study for the same reasons is not evidence ivermectin helps in any way against covid, if anything it would prove the opposite, because if actual valid evidence was available nobody would have to use this report plagued with problems and scientific malpractice.

Well, no evidence or proof, so we can't say the medical experts all agree long Covid is associated with suicidal thoughts, etc.

Any negative event on the life of a person can be associated with suicidal thoughts, what the article is saying is that experts are urging for studies to be made so the degree of the correlation is made clear. The consensus would be then about how important it is, not just that it can happen.

Most of these cases of long covid and the ensuing suicides occurring after mid 2020 or so could have been avoided if governments and the media, on behalf of their pharma friends, hadn't banned or demonised certain unmentionable cheap, safe and effective treatments. 

There is absolutely nothing banned that would have helped with this situation, things like HCQ or ivermectin have been demonstrated to be absolutely useless against covid no matter the dose or timing of use, there is no longer any reasonable doubt about this, insisting on this is just disinformation.

Dexamethasone for example is a dirt cheap drug that was quickly and easily demonstrated as useful against covid, so the supposed conspiracy that would make this impossible is obviously false.

There is absolutely nothing banned that would have helped with this situation, things like HCQ or ivermectin have been demonstrated to be absolutely useless against covid no matter the dose or timing of use, there is no longer any reasonable doubt about this, insisting on this is just disinformation.

Virus,COVID and mental illness,you are about year late,l explain it last summer here

Sad situation.

Most of these cases of long covid and the ensuing suicides occurring after mid 2020 or so could have been avoided if governments and the media, on behalf of their pharma friends, hadn't banned or demonised certain unmentionable cheap, safe and effective treatments. But we're not allowed to talk about that.

"I'm sure long COVID is associated with suicidal thoughts, with suicide attempts, with suicide plans and the risk of suicide death. We just don't have epidemiological data," said Leo Sher, a psychiatrist at Mount Sinai Health System in New York who studies mood disorders and suicidal behavior.

Well, no evidence or proof, so we can't say the medical experts all agree long Covid is associated with suicidal thoughts, etc.
