Post-covid vs post-flu: retrospective study based on a global research network investigates post-infection conditions, long-term risk of ED visits, hospitalization & death. Looked at 6614 patients in each group hospitalized 1/22-1/23 w/90-180d followup. 🧵 doi.org/10.1186/s12916…
The Covid group had a higher incidence of overall post-infection conditions compared to the influenza group, including a difference in what each group was experiencing. The Covid group had more abnormal breathing, more abdominal issues, more fatigue, and more cognitive issues.
@NohaAboelataMD And in 2022>2023 the amount of population immunity for Flu was still dramatically higher than that for Covid. In 2024, that has changed. The CDC Wonder data now shows a rolling 12 months where Flu deaths are higher than Covid. Covid deaths have dropped by over 50% in that time.
@NohaAboelataMD A far stronger study with much better methods
@NohaAboelataMD Also. The flu won't give you vasculitis, mitochondria and endothelial damage, Cognitive damage, neuropathy, and a broken immune system in my case lead to stage IV cancer. Yup. I wish it was only the flu in early 2020 I had. Don't live in fear but live an educated life.
@NohaAboelataMD Fig 4 and 5 shows higher risk in jabbed.
@NohaAboelataMD Why compare a novel virus during a pandemic to endemic flu? You're comparing apples to oranges. If you did the same experiment now or in a years time the results would probably be very different.
