For all those that ridicule and laugh whenever I post about the effects of Covid, do you really believe that all these studies are not true? Is your knowledge of the effects of a new virus greater than the people carrying out these studies?

You come across as if you think you are the only person on here that's aware of these studies and you are on a one person crusade to point them out to the rest of us. Most people are aware of the ongoing dangers of Covid and what is known as long Covid. But we choose to try and live as normal a life as possible and put our trust in the scientific world to come up with vaccines to combat them.
I wonder how many people are aware that you cannot donate blood if you have Long Covid. The problem is that there are many people who may have Long Covid but don't realise it.
If Covid isn't a problem, then why would people be prevented from giving blood? If there are fears that people with Long Covid could give contaminated blood, there must be greater honesty in the damage that Covid infection can do. Could this be another scandal like the Factor 8 scandal where Haemophiliacs were given contaminated blood.
There is far too much being hidden from the public with the 'Covid is over' mentality.
There is still no determinative test for 'Long Covid'
No determinative test for a condition that reportedly has the ability to affect every organ and system in the body. That’s like saying cancer is one illness and one size fits all.
Speaking of the next pandemic, there are serious concerns amongst those who know about H5N1 bird flu in the US which has made a significant jump in infecting cows and is wreaking havoc in the dairy population across the US.

When almost every post I make is ridiculed, then I think I'm entitled to think that most people on here don't believe that Covid poses a danger.
Unfortunately the vast majority of people are not aware of the effects of Covid of the body. There are plenty in the scientific world who are appalled at the actions of governments in allowing the unmitigated spread of a virus that is known to cause those effects. Many of those in government know they have made bad decisions and try to cover it up by spreading the falsehood that Covid only affects certain vulnerable people and it's ok for most of the population to become infected.
It is governments that force the narrative on Covid and trusting them to put people's health before other considerations is misplaced.
The UK is now one of the least well protected by the vaccines and therapeutics, with only limited numbers of people able to get them. I know of people who have been very unwell with Covid, but unless you are hospitalised, your chances of getting the anti-viral drugs that lessen and reduce the severity of symptoms are almost impossible to get. I do not trust our Government to protect people.
Here we go with the victim routine. Not all your posts get ridiculed, but you do get stick for not listening to anything anyone else says or seeing their perspective, but then accuse people of doing exactly the same thing.
What you’re trying to achieve continually telling us about people (not even on here) not realising about Covid, I’m not quite sure.

You get ridiculed and LOL’d for many different reasons I’d imagine. To still be this paranoid about Covid this far on is deeply sad to some but I imagine humorous to others. The whole “oh so you think people dying of Covid is funny then?” act is so old and tiresome and probably laughable to some. You know full well that no one is or has ever laughed at death or illness, instead it’s at the same paranoia and the way you put things. Yet trotting out the above line obviously makes you happier. The complete refusal to ever admit that you were wrong or that some of your comments a few years ago were ill-advised at best is similar to the stubbornness of a child who can’t accept when they’ve been caught out by their parents. This, I’d expect also encourages a few LOLs. Oh, and the “Covid hasn’t gone away you know” thing always made me laugh because of the irony of you constantly saying it way before anyone even uttered those words. As I say, you’re not silly so I’m sure you know all this, but as others have said, it’s much easier to play the victim and pretend you think people are laughing at Covid itself.

Probably because you can link eye damage to any number of things, but it's not likely to bother many people.

Might buy some shares in Pfizer and Astra Zeneka.
You can be as cynical as you like but there is an increasing risk that we’ll see another viral pandemic much sooner than the 100 years between Spanish Flu and Covid-19. Whether its birds or bats that is the cause is unknown but there are without any doubt some very worrying viruses out there in the animal kingdom, known and unknown just waiting for the right conditions to jump species. The zoonotic virus pool is simply gigantic. Fwiw my personal view is that we actually dodged a bullet with Covid-19. Next time we might not be anywhere near as lucky.

As my hen sanctuary has to be registered with DEFRA I’m alerted to any incidents of bird flu. This year there have been less than previous years and no national ‘flockdown’ where we have to take measures to protect the birds from wild birds. Fingers crossed this continues.
From all the other stuff they send me Blue Tongue in cattle seems to be this year’s problem.

H5N1 Bird Flu is pretty bad in the USA at the moment, having moved into cattle herds and other species.
A new study carried out by researchers at the University of York suggests 28% of people who catch COVID-19 will go on to suffer from Long Covid.
The study also reveals that one in four people with Long Covid will experience brain fog and one in three to four will develop anxiety or depression.
However, the findings of the study, published in the journal General Hospital Psychiatry, suggest that full Covid vaccination makes sufferers four times less likely to have brain fog – a term used to describe symptoms including poor concentration, feeling confused and cognitive impairment.
ME, I'd consider myself more sympathetic to the perspective you hold than most, but did you read the review article itself?
"It should be noted that the research summarised in this review is fundamentally descriptive, so causal attribution to acute COVID-19 disease is not possible."
There may be a correlation between mental health and Long COVID, there may also be a correlation to a pandemic that led to millions experiencing financial hardship, isolation and fear.

Thank you for taking the time to read the article published by The University of York, which I assumed was a summary of the findings. I hadn't read the whole of the study and have now done so and post here the paragraph from which you quoted:
It should be noted that the research summarised in this review is
fundamentally descriptive, so causal attribution to acute COVID-19 disease is
not possible. However, our findings that approximately one in five to one in
four of long COVID cases experience mental health conditions or brain fog
suggest there is a high demand for effective and accessible treatments. Funding
for research into effective treatments for mental health conditions and brain
fog in people with long COVID is urgently needed.
This
is the first systematic review to determine the prevalence rates of both mental
health conditions and brain fog in long COVID, and to compare factors that may
be associated with their presence. Both are common, with prevalence rising with
time after SARS-CoV-2 infection. The prevalence of brain fog, but not of mental
health conditions, is inversely related to vaccination rates, suggesting some
degree of pathogenic independence. Research is required to better characterise
the neurocognitive features of brain fog, their pathogenesis, and brain fog's relationship (if any) to other mental health conditions,
such that therapeutic targets might be identified. As our findings emphasize
the value of vaccination in preventing brain fog as a core symptom of long
COVID, ongoing vaccination programmes should be encouraged and reinforce the
need for effective treatments to manage mental health conditions and brain fog
in long COVID. Furthermore, given the increasing prevalence of mental health
conditions over time, and their potential negative impact on recovery,
preventive treatment for mental health conditions in long COVID may be helpful. l hope that you will agree with me that from the many studies carried out on the effects of Covid infection, it is dangerous to allow the idea that Covid is nothing to worry about. In the last 2 days I have seen many people starting to ask if this is going to be the next big public health scandal and cover-up.

Why do you think people think the subject of what you posted is a ‘laughing matter’? It’s not. So, maybe that’s a clue to tell you the LOL’s are aimed at you and not at COVID itself. Of course you probably know that after all this time but still you insist on posting in a similar vein, presumably to get a reaction. And then you do the guilt trip back to them, presumably to try to make them feel bad, which in turn can put the moderators in a difficult spot. I wish after all this time you would just respect other members of this forum as to their wishes without the, as I perceive it, passive aggressive responses to get a reaction. People aren’t trying to undermine your freedom of speech but people are put off by being repeatedly preached to.
