To muddy the waters even further, most people at this point have had both Covid vaccines and Covid itself. Any lingering symptoms tend to be interpreted politically; some people will say they have Long Covid while others with identical symptoms will say they're suffering adverse side effects of the vaccine.

That is such a good point about the vaccine, and that makes me think of this study done in Japan on HPV vaccine side effects where any symptom from the long list of potential symptoms that showed up

over FOUR YEARS after the vaccine was counted. How can proper research be done with such vague parameters?

“Meanwhile, the first symptom appeared from October 2010 to October 2015, and the age at the appearance of the first symptoms ranged from 12 to 20 years old (mean ± SD: 14.3 ± 1.6 years old). Thus, the time from the first vaccine dose to symptom onset ranged from 0 to 1532 days (median: 199 days). The interval between the onset of symptoms and our initial examination ranged from 0 to 85 months (median: 31 months)”
