You may have heard it mentioned. A lurking and mysterious illness that never seems to go away. No, not Socialism, though they are connected. It’s called Long COVID!
Virginia Senator Tim Kaine says he’s got it.
Long COVID, which is sometimes called “post-COVID” by public health bodies, encompasses a broad range of lingering symptoms after a COVID infection. Some symptoms recorded include “tiredness or fatigue,” “brain fog,” “joint or muscle pain,” “cough,” “rash,” “heart palpitations,” “dizziness,” “diarrhea,” and “mood changes,” according to the CDC.
According to reporting at the Free Beacon, it was identified by Body Politic, a “queer feminist wellness collective.”
Kaine has a bill to throw buckets of money at more research, but the NIH has already laundered 1.5 billion on the idea of the “prolonged health consequences of COVID19.” Long COVID.
I have a better idea. Read GraniteGrok. We spent zero federal dollars reporting on the prolonged health effects of the COVID19 response. The policies and programs that are in my mind responsible for a lot of ills, including Long COVID.
Two years of fearmongering by politicians and the media created Long COVID. Politicians, the media, the Karens, the 24/7/365 mask mandates, vaccine chatter, passports, and all of it.
COVID was never the thing they claimed but saying it long enough and often enough makes it real in people’s minds, so their bodies make it true.
Jeremy Devine, a resident psychiatrist at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, argued in a Wall Street Journal editorial last year that long COVID is “largely an invention of vocal patient activist groups.” He says symptoms attributed to long COVID could be “psychologically generated” or “caused by a physical illness unrelated to the prior infection.” …
[The] fear of chronic illness is likely the underlying problem.
“A central feature underlying many psychosomatic-symptom disorders is a fixed belief that one is ill and unlikely to recover,” Devine said. “By drawing attention to and legitimizing the ever-present threat of long COVID, medical authorities will lead a large group of impressionable patients to believe that their COVID-19 symptoms have not resolved and that they are helpless victims of an unrelenting sickness.”
Another manufactured victim group. A psychosomatic disorder found in “impressionable” patients legitimized by the political agenda of (primarily) the Democrat party. Helpless victims of an unrelenting [bigotry, racism, etc.] whose only friend is a vile, heartless behemoth of a bureaucracy that swallows everything to feed itself.
It’s in your head, put there by a political machine that controls media, social media, music, entertainment, and now – for the most part – the public health apparatus.
Long COVID is not a physical illness. You will never have a swab or blood sample test positive. It’s not something you can cure with another vaccine or a series of boosters – not that those looking for an opportunity to catch in on this fraud won’t try.
They will, and by those looking, I mean public-private partnerships, just like with COVID19.
But there is a cure and not just for Long COVID. And we don’t need to add billions of dollars that do not exist to the national debt. Just turn that stuff off. Tune out the political machine, legacy media, Big Tech social media, and filter your music and entertainment.
It’s like any toxic relationship. Step away from the ledge, and they won’t be able to push you off.
And then ask some fundamental questions. When will we invest time and effort into researching the harms caused by the political response, one of which happens to be Long COVID?
