I’m still processing something that happened today, and I am fucking LIVID. People with Long COVID have to be among the most ruthlessly exploited patients on the planet. The grift is absolutely shameless. These predators enter patient communities, listen to people describe their suffering, their cognitive difficulties, their desperation for relief… and see a BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY. They hear “brain fog” and think “easy target.” Let me tell you something: Some of the most intelligent people I’ve ever met have Long COVID. Cognitive impairment is not stupidity. Desperation is not gullibility. And chronic illness is not your fucking business model. We’ve got people discussing serious medical conditions, including chronic kidney failure, and you’re swooping in to sell them $200 “frequency-infused” sugar pills disguised as a detox protocol? Are you FUCKING KIDDING ME? These people need medical care. They need research. They need treatments. They need someone to actually listen. They don’t need another parasite trying to monetize their suffering. If you’re lurking in chronic illness communities looking for vulnerable people to sell your pseudoscientific bullshit to, GET THE FUCK OUT. Go back to whatever cave you crawled out of, you fucking vampires. Sick people are not your sales leads. And everyone watching this happen should be calling it out.
