I work with younger people who have almost entirely lost their sense of smell. It seems like a minor issue compared to heart and lung problems, but there are a bunch of studies showing it can lead to depression in a significant amount of people. About a third of people also have a lower sex drive with olfactory loss, which is also troubling. (It’s not related to depression; it’s a whole separate issue.)

I have permanent arthritis-like pain from having Covid last year. I’ll get boosted every time it’s available. It was also like flu x migraines for 3 solid days. I can’t imagine how bad it would have been had I not been vaxxed.

Talbots makes great simple tees that really last. None of mine have stretched out at all or look faded or worn and I am rough on them. They’re 100% cotton.
