   > At least 65 million individuals around the world have long COVID

   This is a legitimate problem and needs publicly-funded research and health care. But let's be clear on what it is;

   "...the continuation or development of new symptoms 3 months after the initial SARS-CoV-2 infection, with these symptoms lasting for at least 2 months with no other explanation."

   In other words, those numbers include all the cases that resolve themselves within a year.
