Dr. Mona Nemer said about 10 to 20 per cent of people with COVID-19 develop long COVID after they have recovered from infection and struggle with a variety of symptoms ranging from high blood pressure and an irregular heartbeat to medically undefined symptoms such as chronic fatigue, brain fog, muscle pain and blurred vision.
Canada could face a “mass disabling event” because it's increasingly clear that COVID-19 raises the risk of several chronic diseases including diabetes and hypertension, Nemer said, adding the number of people afflicted with long COVID may be greater than expected due to the lack of established diagnostic criteria.
In response, the federal government on Thursday announced $29 million in funding for the development of clinical guidelines and the creation of an online network where researchers and clinicians can share information about long COVID with each other and the public. “We will conduct webinars to share our results and we will connect with provincial and professional bodies, for example, like the Ontario College of Family Physicians,” Cheung said, adding the public will have access to the network.
British Columbia has four clinics, after one closed and merged with another last September, a spokesperson with the Health Ministry said in an emailed response. “Currently, more than 1,500 patients across the province are accessing these services and they will continue to get the care they need.” As part of the complex and mysterious spectrum of symptoms, Goulding said some people believe they smell dirty diapers, cigarette smoke and rotting garbage when those smells do not exist, sometimes leading to further stigma from health-care providers and even their own families.
In her report, Nemer also noted thereare very few studies on the “important area of research” involving children with long COVID.
No such thing as 'long covid'. If you are still affected by a virus that just won't leave, you didn't catch covid, you caught a bio-weapon. Leaked from a lab... you were warned.
Whoops looks like you misspelled “vaccine injury”…
Yup. Keep watching YouTube.
So...where are your stats...what % of long covid are vaxxed? 100%?
Vaccine injuries.
F o
Does long Covid mean vaxx injuries?
But by all means, let it rip, eh fordnation ?
BS on that, it’s not like everyone has long COVID so I’m sure it will do nothing
I can’t. I just can’t.
This is complete and utter nonsense ffs!!
You misspelled vaccines
Not true
Lol Canada still trying to shove COVID down people's throats
Havent met one person in 3 years who have it. Not one. Strange huh?
Not! Cause it’s not that widespread
LONG COVID IS B.S. - ANOTHER SCAM TO CONTROL US!!! 😱
Find one long COVID that didn't get the jab.
If it effects the economy fordnation might do something about it.
Enable it and it will happen!
Long covid only affects the vaccinated. Your immune system has been compromised by the experimental injectables.
What is the medical definition of long covid
It's given the lazy a new means to sponge off the state.
Long Covid only seems to effect Upper Middle Class White Women who have spent 3yrs ‘working’ from home. Earning guaranteed six figure incomes for no reason other than simply existing and do not want to return to the workplace. Why is this
Lmao
Tell me about it. I had my 4th covid vaccine on July 23rd then got covid a week later. Then after I got pneumonia a week later. I have not recovered and have been going for several tests ct scans blood tests stress test on my heart and now waiting to see a neurological expert.
Sad we have Canadians that are this pathetically obtuse about long COVID. It’s like he have our own sub culture of MAGA living in back woods areas with internet access thinking they’re medical experts. 🤡
the many people that think Covid is over are in for an unpleasant surprise.
'Report says long COVID could impact economy and be 'mass disabling event' in Canada' Yet another mainstream Communist Party 7 x 24 (CP24) narrative excuse to protect Trudeau who ruined the economy! 🤓 .
You mean woke lazy millennials?
Hypochondria
We’ve had that for the past 8 years!
Covid, racism, misogyny, transphobia, nazis, etc. Clearly the cause of our problems could never be bad policy. That’d require taking actual responsibility.
Oh stop it. 🙄
I wish these people would just F off with their narrative. It’s sad really, they’re grasping at straws.
Long Covid? I think you mean ' vaccine related deaths'.
Hoping that mass disabling event is rather mild.
All the specialized workers are busy flipping burgers whether they immigrated or not. Its a management issue
Omg are people really still talking about COVID? Jesus Christ, that ended back in 2021. It’s been 2 years, billions did not die, it was hardly even a fuckin thing! Not even a billion people died!
😂😂😂
They're really trying use that for the reason? What if its something else?
liberal_party is the true virus disabling Canada
Who's fault is this The government knew this shit didn't work and lockdowns were unnecessary. You can suck it!!
Send the bill to China
Long Covid is just the euphemism for the shot.
99% of ppl watching know the real answer. 99% of ppl not watching will soon find out…the day is coming.
Yup, we have no data, stating the long-term effects of those ClotShots. If all goes according to plan Agenda2030, this could very well be, the big deletion for Canada. Godspeed SaveCanada TrudeauForTreason Nuremberg2
It’s not long Covid it is adverse events of the vaccine
Sthu
Stop calling it 'long covid' and refer to what it really is: vaccine injury!
But there’s that 98% survival rate, remember? It’s almost like this is why masks and prevention was being pushed so hard…🧐
Send me your money and I’ll triple it in a week for $10.
“Mass disabling event” almost like they know something is coming. I would be suspicious if this was a man made virus.. oh wait it was.. well I’d be suspicious if the same people that made the virus are pushing the solution on us.. oh wait they are 🤡🌎🐑🖕
Lololol, of course it could, here comes the next narrative that these people and “experts” can’t let go of…..
No you can blame Trudeau for shutting down this country for 2 years
Any studies on vaxed vs unvaxed cases of 'long covid' because a skeptic might think these are vax injuries.
Nonsense. Though I am sure a lot of hypochondriacs will be convinced they have it.
This is a pathetic attempt to blame the results of shutting down societies for 3 years on COVID itself. There are long term consequences, but they are not COVID related but COVID *measures* related.
Another vague non verifiable ailment to scam disability.
Thanks Captain Obvious 🙄
scam
It’s a side effect…
May I ask? WTF IF A “CHIEF SCIENCE ADVISOR”? Sounds like a name 5 year old would make up
What's COVID ?
Sounds like a parody post
No such thing...
('Canada's chief science adviser says she considers COVID-19 the “head” of the pandemic but long COVID its “tail” as the illness inflicts significant harm on individuals, their families') Just a simple question for everyone: since when did the govt start caring for your health?
What has a long negative impact is Trudeau cdnpoli TrudeauIsDestroyingCanada ForeignInterference
