Covid Causes 200+ Illnesses

✅ Know the research: it is crucial to be vaccinated and get boosted every 6 months to avoid major illness, but vaccines still aren’t 100% preventative against infection! Wearing a mask WORKS. One in five people infected (symptomatic or not) develop Long Covid, which consists of 200+ illnesses including early Alzheimer’s, diabetes, stroke, myocarditis, asthma, chronic fatigue, brain shrinkage, heart attack, and more. It can last several years - even among the young, athletic, and healthy. ✅ Wear a mask in all public places because not doing so guarantees people will spread the virus and cause long term sicknesses to themselves and others. Those unmasked also spread it to the immunocompromised, causing hospitalizations and death! Just because someone *else* is wearing a mask doesn’t mean they are completely protected - both people need to wear one to prevent transmission. ✅ PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING: get vaccinated to lessen risk of infection, get your 100% safe booster shots, and wear a mask when you go out. Avoid very crowded activities, host virtual events, and wear a mask while traveling (airports/hotels are super spreaders!) Consider that those around you may be immunocompromised and could die if they get Covid. ✅ Covid is not over, it is extremely serious and Long Covid will have a dangerous impact on society’s long term health. This is science, not a political statement. Protect yourself and others.
