Why would someone who is 1) a COVID Researcher 2) a published COVID Scientist 3) An inventor of the fastest way int he world to detect COVID 4) someone who explicitly stated covid is serious.... why would someone fitting that description give yout he impression that I think COVID isnt serious.

I will be clear and state again. COVID is a serious disease.

YEs I do agree that post-covid symptoms are a legitimate concern. But there is no solid consensus on how common it is, in fact the complete lack of consensus, combined with lack of being even able to do a double-blind controlled study, and with the very high fear factor, we have absolutely no idea how common it is. So any assertion of any number, even 10% is highly irresponsible IMO. We cant even be certain long-covid exists yet, let alone how common it is. There needs to be a lot more research before any doctor should be asserting numbers around how common long covid is. The only thing we should be saying is "there isnt scientific consensus yet and it remains an area of concern"
