Where Are the Workers? Millions Are Sick With ‘Long Covid.’

Barron’s

Unpaywalled version:

Here’s another theory about where the workers have gone: Many are suffering from what has come to be known as long Covid, or lingering negative effects of the virus, preventing a bigger-than-appreciated share of working-age people from resuming normal work lives

In December 2020, Brandie Parshall, 43, of Hughson, Calif., contracted Covid-19. She had a mild case, but a few weeks later fatigue and tachycardia hit her hard. She took a leave in early January from her accounting job; in July she felt well enough to try returning to work, but even working half days from home for a month depleted her and Parshall’s doctor advised her to reverse course. “I want to work so bad,” Parshall says, speaking emotionally about her decision to resign from her company after two decades.

Dear daily beast,

Please don’t give this asshole any more news coverage. We already know he is a danger to everyone, including himself.

Personally, I could do with a week of embargo for every news considering quacks, anti-vaxers, and the like.
At least a week.

It’s Pfizer-biontech, to go with my second dose (the first was AZ).

I’ve got my appointment for the booster dose!

However, since we’re doing an age-based roll-out again, it isn’t until mid-January.

On a more positive note, we’re really rolling these out quickly. We’ve now given booster jabs to over a third of the population, and take-up of the first one is still slowly climbing as people who missed their appointment continue to trickle in. We’re at a shade off 80% vaccinated
