Had a long talk with a friend who is an ICU nurse. She said that “long covid” is actually just bacterial pneumonia in people who work in places that require them to wear masks for 8-10 hours at a time. But these people would come in with a cough, test positive for the virus and be designated as covid patients. Their symptoms were identical to pneumonia so she asked her supervisors why they were designating these people as covid patients when they were clearly suffering from pneumonia. She was told that this is just how they were doing things out of an abundance of caution. She began asking the patients how often they used new masks and over half of them had been wearing the same dirty mask for days and weeks on end that would accumulate moisture and become breeding grounds for harmful bacteria.
Covid = souped up flu
Long covid = bacterial pneumonia caused by dirty repeat use masks
Don’t let them change the language of medicine. There is no such thing as “long covid.”
Souped up cold, but close enough. It is also the actual flu. It is also auto accidents, and cancer, and heart attacks, etc. It is everything because the "test" has a huge chance of being a false positive. In truth, you would get more accurate results about covid status by flipping a coin.
Agreed. Dr. Fauci even wrote a paper about how pneumonia was the leading cause of death in pandemics, not the viruses themselves. Other papers have linked mask wearing to pneumonia. You would think, knowing this, that he would suggest not using masks... Oh, that's right, he did.
Redefining words is a spell. It creates cognitive dissonance and decreases our ability to communicate with accuracy. This creates distrust between ALL people, which creates further cognitive dissonance and social separation. It keeps us from seeking out the truth, because nothing can be trusted. It is a wholly evil method of social control.
Agreed.
Long covid is also post viral syndrome and hypochondria.
No it's not. The DS and propaganda changes all definitions and all measurements, lying regularly to pervert the connection between words and truth. It makes reasonable debate impossible when you use their words and definitions. I have no doubt that pneumonia is called covid, just like the flu and the cold and traffic accidents are all called covid.
But there's something with it's own new pathology, whether it's a virus or not, that's been going around. And it lasts longer than a flu, and for some people who are hit hard, it takes months to shake completely. And yes, there are also hypochondriacs. No need to lump them together.
Spanish flu of 1918 is back on the menu and rebranded.
My gf is one of the nasty dirty mask wearers. She only wears it to go into stires but still.i have to make her throw it in the laundry.
Wife material right there.
......how come I had never heard of "viral pneumonia" until this year?
No such thing as covid. FTFY.
