What a silly article with zero connection to scientific reality. There's nothing special about SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). It's just another coronavirus much like the others that were already endemic. Never-ending reinfections were always inevitable when the first carrier left Wuhan, so "manufactured consent" or lack thereof are utterly irrelevant.

False. When properly and consistently worn, N95 respirators effectively stop COVID transmission.

It very clearly bucks previous trends, considering:
40% of the undergrad students reported brain fog due to COVID-19. 37% of the undergraduates exhibited impaired cognition up to 17 months post-infection.
You've got to be kidding. No one is going to keep wearing those masks, regardless of whether they get reinfected occasionally. Get real.
"Long COVID" isn't anything unique or special. An infection by most any virus can cause similar long-term symptoms in a subset of patients. It sucks for them, but that's just one of the many risks of living real world. The rest of us aren't going to waste time worrying about one more minor respiratory virus among hundreds of other ones.

Give people the facts about COVID, that it is basically like airborne AIDS, and then let them decide. Unfortunately they were never given that chance thanks to capital's forced messaging on the issue. Even most doctors are drinking the Koolaid. Everyone has a nuked immune system and have become used to getting sick constantly as a result, all seasons of the year.

What's different about SARS-COV-2 is that it's constantly mutating and reinfecting at drastically greater rates than anything else we're used to dealing with. Each reinfection increases the risk of long COVID, causes measurable IQ loss, etc.
But keep burying your head in the sand so that you can remain blissfully ignorant.
