People talking about it being less ‘deadly’ than the flu are missing the elephant in the room: Long Covid.

The long covid is very real. My adult son in London got covid a year ago a but now has the long covid and struggles to deal with his day. Others are in hospitals, some for more than one year. If anyone has an answer very happy to hear it.
