Covid permanently harms immune system, repeat infections increase damage

Good thing I’ve never had covid

I mean repeat infections of other viruses like flu or even bad colds also make you more vulnerable for awhile. But then your immunity recovers. We don’t know whether that happens with Covid.

These researchers are looking at something weird that happens with the immune systems of some, but not all people infected with COVID. It's worth studying but nobody is saying everyone who gets COVID more than once will have a "permanently damaged" immune system.

What is it that you want people to do with us “information”? Freak out more to make you feel better?

+1. Probably more than half of Americans have had Covid. What do you want everyone to do about it?

A family member has been working on RNA solutions for HIV for decades, and the same tech has been used in the covid vaccines to combat covid. Serious similarities between the two.

The majority of the world have moved on from Covid. Fear mongering statistics are no longer a thing.

Yes, HIV and COVID are both viruses. But their effects on the immune system are totally different and anyone who denies that is spreading misinformation, probably knowingly.

The sickest family I know has never had covid.

We've all had covid. Some of us have been sick constantly afterwards. It seems like something has happened to their immune system, not sure what.

But I also think "permanent" is a strong word. People recover from all sorts of things. Sometimes it takes a longer time than others.

There's not much to do about it, but more knowledge is better than less knowledge. I'd like to know. You do you.

DP, but this doesn’t sound great, even if not the exact same sentiment as OP.

We all know long Covid is devastating but there does appear to be a lot of more of the minor long Covid issues. Many are not associated with covid but probably should be.

I’ve had stomach pain non stop since Covid in May.
It is of course a possible coincidence but most drs say that there is a noticeable increase in people complaining of digestive issues post Covid. I think it certainly affects us in ways we are just beginning to understand.

Each study may not be conclusive but I think it’s all helpful as we try to put the pieces together.

Eh, I’d spend more time worrying about the rise of fungal infections and antibiotic resistance in bacteria.

Humans have suffered from infectious disease for most of human history; the last 80 years with the magic of antibiotics and hygiene are an outlier. Nature finds a way you know.

True, and creepy.
