Seventh, every virus, even chicken pox have long term effects. Chicken pox turns into shingles with a depressed immune system as one example. All I’m advocating for is for people to strengthen their immune system through proper nutrition. viruses are out there. If not covid, trust me, then something else!
Yes, but we dont know what the long term effects of Covid are though. It a brand new disease. Just came out last year. I had chicken pox 30 years ago. Covid wasnt out 30 years ago. We don't know everything about it.
I'm not disagreeing with you on proper nutrition. I can eat as healthy as possible, I still don't want to catch it and I will still wear a mask when I need to. And will distance and all that other stuff.

For the first time in my entire life, I feel sorry for Cuomo for having to deal with this mess. I still haven't completely forgiven him for renaming the Tappan Zee Bridge - but I am getting close!
I forgot he did that. I don't give af...I still call it Tappan Zee Bridge.

These aren't proper comparisons. I know people who contracted Covid and they are still f'd up. Chickenpox doesn't have the long-term and serious affects as Covid does. The people I know still have trouble breathing. Life has not gone back to normal for them.

Most of us will still call it Tappan Zee but two generations down it will be called Cuomo bridge by all....thereby erasing both the Tappan and the Dutch Zee.
Technically though it's not "renaming" because its a new bridge.

...and I had it (late March) and I'm perfectly fine. Have played countless games of pick up ball without an issue. Gaining 15lbs during the lockdown has had much worse or an adverse effect on my health.
Any "long term" effects need to be proven. Plenty of people are hypochondriacs or if they're not, the media has sure made them regarding this virus.
There have been studies that have proven that severe bouts with the flu degrade long term lung capacity. EVERY moderate to severe bout of sickness degrades your long term health in one way or another.

Because they have underlying illnesses. The data is already out there.

"The two-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year told the French newspaper L’Equipe that even though he quickly recovered from the virus, he still hasn’t completely regained his sense of smell."
I wonder what underlying illness this NBA player had? He's in better physical shape than majority of us posting here. Guess he just was unlucky?

Did he die, though? Trust me, his loss of smell is only temporary. Many people have experienced this. It can take up to a year for a full recovery. What’s important is that he’s now playing. It’s not like with hepatitis - another infectious disease, where you need a full liver transplant.

I would like to think that in the event of a fire, I would be at least able to smell the smoke
Meh, not important
