> If you had no chronic illness symptoms you were aware of, and then get covid, and then have chronic illness symptoms - that's long covid.

Or a coincidence.. Not an unlikely one either, given the broad and vague set of symptoms.




Sure, but until we know what it is and how to measure if you have it - there is no difference between a coincidence and it. Would you rather we tell everybody who says they have it they don't, or accept everybody's self-assessment? Because until we have a way to diagnose it using an objective measure, those are the options.
