>Some 3 million workers remain out of the labor force

>Bunker estimates that roughly 20% of Covid cases in the U.S. turn into long Covid, and that at least half of that slice isn’t able to work. Doing some back-of-the-envelope math, that’s 4.6 million people.

So 153% of people out of the workforce have long covid? That seems a bit high.
