The amount of money Jeff Bezos "earns" in 5 MINUTES could completely pay off the debt I've accrued while fighting #cancer for the last 18 YEARS.
He could be doing so many amazing things for humanity.
What a shame.
I hope to someday live in a country where I don't need this help. ❤️

At the top, a bold white header inside a rounded navy box reads "THIS LOOKS LIKE...".
Below the header is a vertical list numbered 1 through 4 inside light blue circles:
• 1: Altered immune system cells. The text notes severe cases can change parent stem cells to create more inflammatory immune cells.
• 2: Viral reservoirs and fragments. The text explains that lingering viral components in Long COVID patients can amplify inflammation.
• 3: Immune dysregulation and chronic inflammation. The text defines dysregulation as some cells overworking while others are exhausted.
• 4: Triggered autoimmune conditions, blood clots, and latent viruses. The text states infections can trigger autoantibodies leading to disorders.
Stylized red blood cells appear in the bottom-left corner.

At the top, a large white header reads "5-20%". Below it, white text explains that this percentage of people develop "lingering symptoms" (highlighted in red) or new conditions after infection, called "Long COVID." (in bold white).
A central paragraph states: "As of the CDC’s latest count in March 2024, 30% [highlighted in red] of all American adults who’ve had COVID have experienced Long COVID."
At the bottom, an illustration shows a person looking unwell in bed under a red blanket with a thermometer in their mouth and a cold compress on their forehead, holding a hot mug. To their left is a large, light blue alarm clock.
At the very bottom, small white text credits the "Yale SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH" and lists the sources as "WHO, CDC".](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyy3irakdgdbhcdtd4ik6aro/bafkreieytng5q6imgukqgc5f6tjoq2vbp75h34elmt6yatp2xldpvllc5a)
