The thing is, there are claims circulating that long Covid can develop weeks and months after a Covid infection, and even one that was mild or symptom-free.

I don't doubt that tissue damage from Covid isn't real; like people having loss of smell or heart trouble.

But there is considerable scaremongering around it which plays into the psychology of hypochondria.

A healthy dose of skepticism is needed here, and remembering where the burden of proof lies.
