Conclusion SARS-CoV-2 was associated with a 3–4-fold higher population mortality burden than seasonal influenza A despite available countermeasures. Post-PHEIC data suggest that the burden of respiratory virus mortality, including for influenza, has not returned to pre-pandemic levels, highlighting the continued importance of respiratory virus prevention strategies. Estimates for influenza A and RSV were sensitive to seasonal adjustment, highlighting the importance of modelling choices when quantifying virus-attributable mortality.

On #LongCovidAwarenessDay — I think the most important thing to understand is that it’s still happening: “I got COVID for a 3rd time in 2025 (I'm vaxed, boosted & took paxlovid)... Boom #LongCovid. Can't climb due to PEM. I haven't climbed in almost a year.” “COVID… is still causing disability.“

Reddit post on Climber Girls sub:

—-
I've never posted here but I'm a lady climber and climbing is/was my life.

Endless trips, endless training. My friends. Impacted the jobs I took... My whole world. My whole world.

I was chipping away, trying to get to V12. Going through a rough life patch because I had to move away from a city I liked for a job. But climbing my hardest yet.

I got COVID for a third time in 2025 (I'm vaxed and boosted and took paxlovid)..... Boom long COVID. Can't climb due to PEM. I haven't climbed in almost a year. I even learned I was having some remnants of long COVID from prior infections (things like hives, or some sleep stuff, and deficiencies which I learned COVID can cause).

But this last one really did it. I'm not as severe as other people but I'll crash for a week if I go to the gym.

It is.... Really sad. I'm not used to it and don't know when I'll be used to it. I don't know if it goes away.

Close-up of the broken hearts that made up the HOPE banners. They are unique and indicate submissions from different provinces, some saying anonymous, or sharing how long they’ve been sick. The prompt: having long COVID is heartbreaking because…I fear a future spent in bed, in the dark, severely disabled. I have difficulty seeing my loved ones as much as I would like. I can no longer do physical activities with my children. My heart rate goes to 180bpm walking 1 block at an incline. I am no longer the woman I thought I would be in this life.

Did you know? Certain illnesses, like measles & COVID-19, can harm your immune system & make you more vulnerable to sickness later. Protect your immune system by getting vaccinated & avoiding getting sick! Learn more about measles & immune amnesia: www.healthychildren.org/English/tips...

Text says "Have you heard of Immune Amnesia?If you haven’t (and even if you have), we’ll tell you about it.” In the corner is an image of a man scratching his head.

Important to understand first: When your body is exposed to certain germs that can cause diseases, your immune system builds a “memory” of them, so if you’re exposed to these germs again, your immune system recognizes them and knows how to fight them off. Your immune system also builds this memory when you get vaccinated, so you don’t have to get sick in order to protect yourself from future infections.

Graphics show a shield with arms holding a sword and fighting off germs. Another graphic shows a vaccine vial

text says "Important to understand first: Immune amnesia means something has caused your body to lose, or “forget,” its memory of germs you’ve been exposed to before, meaning you’re more likely to get sick and to experience severe illness if you’re exposed to it again. Measles can cause your immune system to forget up to 73% of its memory. In other words, after having measles, you will be immune to measles, but may be at increased
risk of other serious illnesses. Did you know? Measles is not the only virus that can harm your immune system. COVID-19 has also been found to cause long-term harm to your body’s ability to fight off illnesses, making you more likely to get sick and experience severe illness.”
Graphics show a stick figure shivering with fear because the shield in front of him is broken, and now germs are reaching him. Two pie charts: one says “100% memory before” and the other shows “73% memory lost after"

Unfortunately, there’s no way to predict whose immune system will be most harmed by being sick. It can happen to anyone! The best way to avoid immune amnesia is to get vaccinated & take other steps to avoid getting sick So please remember, it is not a good idea to expose
yourself to these viruses on purpose in order to build
immunity! That is what vaccines are for. Getting sick makes you much more likely to hurt your immune system! Graphics of a vaccine, a mask, and an air purifier and open window symbolizing clean air

When you’re living with chronic illness, your body calls the shots. It doesn’t matter how hard you try. It doesn’t matter how badly you “want” to do something. There’s time when your body will say “No”. You’re no longer in control and it can be devastating.

Map of the United States titled “COVID-19 Heat Map, Based on CDC Wastewater Data and Levels (U.S.)” dated March 2, 2026. States are color-coded by COVID levels: very high (dark red), high (red), moderate (orange), low (yellow), very low (light yellow), and limited data (striped). Many Midwest and some Eastern states show high or very high levels, while much of the West shows low or very low levels. A note states transmission is subsiding unevenly, with 16 states still at high or very high levels and many states having limited data.

Slide titled “National COVID-19 Estimates (U.S.)” dated March 2, 2026. It reports an estimated 1 in 76 people (1.3%) are actively infectious, with about 645,000 new daily infections and 4.72 million infections in the past week. Total infections in 2026 are estimated at 51 million, with an average of 5.09 cumulative infections per person.

Under Long COVID, it estimates 32,000 to 129,000 new daily cases and 236,000 to 940,000 weekly cases.

Under Excess Deaths, it estimates 180 to 310 deaths daily and 1,300 to 2,200 weekly.

A note states the U.S. is seeing roughly 650,000 new daily infections amid moderate transmission levels.
