The comparison to HIV is important because, like early HIV infections, mild or moderate COVID can cause unseen destruction. With HIV, people were infected for years before symptoms appeared, while the virus quietly destroyed the immune system. However, the HIV epidemic spurred brilliant science that changed how HIV is treated.
We are now learning about mitochondria, viral impact, brain fog, changes in neurons, and cells that nourish neurons because of Long COVID. The goal is to reach a point where, through research, people with Long COVID can not only survive but thrive, just as HIV patients can live normal lifespans today.
