The variant is called EG.5 and is a descendant of Omicron.
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that EG.5 accounted for roughly 17.3 per cent — or one in six — of new COVID-19 cases in the U.S. in the past two weeks.

Long covid implications are worrisome, multiple reinfections are one of the few things we know are not good
Thanks for being the only voice of reason. Everyone else is just like “ya but we don’t die so who gives a fuck” attitude.
I’m glad some people are still looking at COVID as a whole.
I mean you need only look at the people in your daily life to realize there aren’t many people who care anymore. Simple things like wearing a mask are off the table for the vast majority.
I vaguely remember reading that long COVID is really chronic fatigue syndrome or similar. Basically it can happen after any infection. Doctors haven’t been able to figure out what causes it largely because there hasn’t been enough data. It’s not until COVID came along that they’re taking it seriously.
Not sure if that’s more or less reassuring though. I guess personally I find it reassuring that it’s likely not something COVID specific.
