#1 If this genetic engineering was so well worked out and sure-fire we would no longer have cancer nor the germs that cause bad breath.

Some people will believe anything.

#2 Just keep in mind that I said about women, Murcek.

#3 Men die younger, because women make us want to.

#4 The worst long-term symptoms of COVID are CDC, NIH, WHO, Fauxi and Birx. Or is it Brix? The media changes it's "mind" hourly. They could just settle on "scarf woman."

#5 Married men die later, cause she won't let him get away without more suffering?

You understand a 100 years ago women had about the same life expectancy as men. Needing children for your family social security (cause the state didn't offer it), child mortality rates meaning more tries to secure that old age protection, and birth complications all had major impacts upon that calculation. Then the oppressive patriarchal medical establishment reduced the mortality rate of the latter two factors. With the vote, the ladies addressed the first factor. Then they opted out of doing the dirty and dangerous jobs of the society to insure the death rate calculations would always skew in their favor.

#6 I'm not unrealistic enough to expect to even die happy.

#7 Then they opted out of doing the dirty

And here we are...

#8 Other than hair loss the list of lingering side effects was exactly what I experienced after having double pneumonia. It took a long time to very gradually rehabilitate myself with sad and pathetic weights and even sadder walks since running was then far in the future.

I couldn't have even begun any of that without supplementing my diet with zinc, selenium, magnesium and potassium daily. My hair did go from black to grey in a relatively short time. I am a limited sample to be sure, but I know what happened.

#9 We should lockdown all the time to prevent flu and thus Alzheimers.

#10 Lockdown cures everything!

#11 Any studies comparing the long-term effects of the COVID compared to the Asian/Hong Kong/seasonal flu effects?

Any older studies on the long-term effects of the 1957 Asian flu, the 1968 Hong Kong flu or any subsequent seasonal flu pandemics?

I bet not. Not enough researchers to do the work 50 years ago or media panic to drive the interest. So we really have nothing with which to compare COVID-19.

Except carefully tabulated COVID death rates compared to CDC estimates.

#12 The lung damage is real. I've seen the images on a relative. It will have a longer lasting effect, unlike flu.

#13 This is a credible threat.

In rare cases even 'harmless' well-known childhood diseases can cause deadly long-term complications.

#14 The wrapper on your Big Mac has toxic stuff on it...

#16 For now, we have no reason to trust researchers and their opinions. Not enough time has passed for long term studies. Not that they have any credibility anyway.

#17 It is useful to distinguish between what researchers report and what reporters say about their research.
