Another one is athletes' performance being severely impacted over time. There are plenty of documented cases in many sports.

Great example of this is Asia Durr. Elite athlete and WNBA player. COVID wrecked her and she missed 2 NBA seasons. Could hardly even touch a ball and workout. She JUST got cleared for basketball activities in November of 2021 after 2 years of battling long COVID.

The BLS jobs report came in much lower than expected. Delk should be in here shortly.

Funny, but not surprising that they would be this entitled:

White, employed and mainstream: What we know about the Jan. 6 rioters one year later

Political scientist Robert Pape has found that unlike other extremists he's studied, most of the Jan. 6 rioters were older, employed, and few are members of hate groups.

www.wbur.org

More than half of the Jan. 6 insurrectionists were white-collar workers such as business owners, architects, doctors and lawyers. Pape, who has decades of experience studying global political violence, says this statistic was unexpected. Out of the hundreds of people arrested for breaking into the Capitol, he says only 7% were unemployed at the time — nearly the national unemployment average.

Yet another example confirming the republican ethos when it comes to law and order: the rules are to elevate them and to constrain others.

On NPR, they profiled a baker who still hasn't recovered her senses of taste and smell long after COVID. She owns a shop and said that she relies on memory to continue working since everything smells like burnt wood or trash to her.

That shop is in the town I live in. Good stuff.

This **** is terrifying. Long Covid and a terrible healthcare system is going to be rough times for a lot of people.
