We have scientific studies so you don't need to just go with whatever you imagine reality is. Long COVID isn't necessarily a life altering debilitation, it's symptoms lasting 3 or more months. Often they clear up, but sometimes they don't.
I was thinking about a particular study which identifies why some people seem to get long term effects and others don't. To my knowledge - and from a quick search - that doesn't seem to exist.
I was responding to this.
With regards to that I'd be interested in a meta-analysis similar to this one which manages to account for symptomless, or mild symptom, cases somehow.
