It Turns Out “Long Covid” is Really Just “Being Fat”

Maybe a virus is not the cause of your troubles, Madam Whale?

“Long Covid” is a very obvious hoax. I do not even believe in short Covid, but this long Covid claim is truly ridiculous.

These media people claim that the supposed virus causes you to develop chronic illness, mostly involving fatigue.

A recent AP article admits that people who develop this supposed condition are fat:

Obesity is a risk factor for severe COVID-19 infections and scientists are trying to understand why.

Stanford University researchers are among those who have found evidence that the coronavirus can infect fat cells. In a recent study, they found the virus and signs of inflammation in fat tissue taken from people who had died from COVID.

Lab tests showed that the virus can reproduce in fat tissue. That raises the possibility that fat tissue could serve as a “reservoir,” potentially fueling long COVID.

Could removing fat tissue treat or prevent some cases of long COVID? It’s a tantalizing question, but the research is preliminary, said Dr. Catherine Blish, a Stanford infectious diseases professor and a senior author of the study.

Scientists at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center are studying leptin, a hormone produced by fat cells that can influence the body’s immune response and promote inflammation.

They plan to study whether injections of a manufactured antibody could reduce leptin levels — and in turn inflammation from coronavirus infections or long COVID.

“We have a good scientific basis together with some preliminary data to argue that we might be on the right track,” said Dr. Philipp Scherer.

It sure sounds very much like fat people are just claiming they have “long Covid” to explain why they are so lazy.

“Long Covid” is literally just a rebranding of “chronic fatigue syndrome,” which is very unhealthy people complaining that they don’t have any energy.

America is the most unhealthy society that has ever existed in human history, entirely propped up by drugs. It shouldn’t surprise anyone that people do not feel very good, nor should it be surprising that people would hop on a new fake meme and blame their poor healthy decisions on a secret invisible virus no one has proved exists.
