The WHO Warns COVID will Lead to Mass Disabling Event

Good to be aware of. Lesson's the same. Now everybody pretend you don't notice on 3.
I'm thinking that COVID19 is and continues to be a mass disabling event. The silver lining may be that the medical establishment is finally recognizing that post viral syndromes are real. And they have started gathering data on the topic.
