More on covid and the brain:


The Lancet study link:

Edit:
- Effects visible even in children
Post-COVID-19 risk trajectories differed in children compared with adults: in the 6 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection, children were not at an increased risk of mood (HR 1·02 [95% CI 0·94–1·10) or anxiety (1·00 [0·94–1·06]) disorders, but did have an increased risk of cognitive deficit, insomnia, intracranial haemorrhage, ischaemic stroke, nerve, nerve root, and plexus disorders, psychotic disorders, and epilepsy or seizures (HRs ranging from 1·20 [1·09–1·33] to 2·16 [1·46–3·19]). Unlike adults, cognitive deficit in children had a finite risk horizon (75 days) and a finite time to equal incidence (491 days).
Children have a more benign overall profile of psychiatric risk than do adults and older adults, but their sustained higher risk of some diagnoses is of concern. The fact that neurological and psychiatric outcomes were similar during the delta and omicron waves indicates that the burden on the health-care system might continue even with variants that are less severe in other respects.

Clean air for me, but not for thee.

Jha and Walensky ensured it only for their children school, while their duty was to ensure it for all children nationwide:








after the past couple of years of people discrediting their work, threatening them, politicians pressuring them to make the science sound less scary...they said fukk them and their kids

it's wrong obviously, however this is a consequence of making these people part of political games

Federal Reserve writing notes on Long COVID:
My evidence of labor market effects is not conclusive. Regressions in the Household Pulse Survey are consistent with negative effects of long COVID on individual employment rates, but these results are potentially biased by unobserved confounders. Long COVID has likely contributed to the stalling out of the trend decline in disability rates, but its quantitative importance is difficult to assess.

More research is needed. Long COVID appears to be a common condition, especially for some demographic groups, and has the potential to curtail employment, labor force participation, and hours worked.

Another report has a negative on the economy:
