If the flu disappeared the last 2 years because it was outcompeted by covid , and now
I do not personally know anyone with long covid, 1 lad in work said he had it. There was a woman on red fm last month who was in an awful state and completely housebound ,felt very sorry for her.
She was pretty sure she had long covid and it sounded horrendous for her. Thing is, she said she got it in January 2020 , so when she brings up with medical establishment they tell her it couldn't be as covid was not even here then, says a lot imo.The chap in work had covid and had the given time off, he went back to his doctor after 2 weeks and said he still felt tired, his doctor told him he had long covid. Make of that what you will.
It took me months, years ago, to shake off a chest infection, but the word long flu didn't exist.
Ironic, I find it , I believe that woman who was housebound had long covid regardless of what the medics are telling her , I don't believe the lad in work had long covid.
