🔗 The Current and Future Burden of Long COVID in the United States

Simulations show that the average total cost of a long COVID case can range from $5084-$11 646 (assuming symptoms only last 1 year) with 92.5%-95.2% of these costs being productivity losses. Therefore, the current number of long COVID cases could cost society at least $2.01-$6.56 billion, employers at least $1.99-$6.49 billion in productivity losses, and third-party payers $21.0-$68.5 million annually (6%-20% probability of developing long COVID). These cases would accrue 35 808-121 259 quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) lost and 13 484-45 468 disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) and would rise as COVID-19 incidence increases.

The current health and economic burden of long COVID may already exceed that of a number of other chronic diseases and will continue to grow each year as COVID-19 cases increase. This could be a significant drain on businesses, third-party payers, the healthcare system, and society.

If you spend any time in conservative discussion groups on the internet, they will frequently post links to crime stories with no explanation.

The crimes always involve a suspect who is a racial minority or gay or from some other marginalized group.

They never involve a white male cishet suspect.

Again, you are left to decide for yourself why they keep posting those stories.

I like to do the opposite from time to time.



this.
my dad's dad was in Spain under Franco, imprisoned.
my wife's mom's dad landed on the second day in Normandy.

They'd both no doubt be disgusted with what is happening in our country and especially in the USA.

A black and white photo depicts a line of soldiers running forward on a beach, likely during a wartime invasion. The soldiers are carrying rifles and other equipment, and are moving towards the viewer. Some are crouched low, while others are standing and running with purpose. In the background, more soldiers are advancing in a line, and there are visible pieces of artillery equipment along the beach. The photo has a grainy texture consistent with older photography.

The text overlay reads: "IMAGINE STORMING JUST FOR VOTE BACK IN " and is positioned on the left side of the image. A logo with text "THE RESISTANCE" is visible on the upper right corner. The text "80 YEARS LATER" is positioned below the "VOTE BACK" text.

Hey autistics.life:

We got a weird request to join from a bot. I require a reason for joining to filter out bots, but this one said "automated account for @5th.ro" I rejected it.

Any other admins get this request? Never seen that before.
