Highlights the work absence trend across the USA population. Likely to be broadly representative of the Western world.
What are my thoughts on the reasons?
Circulation of COVID-19 in highly vaccinated regions will increase sick days. In some people, reinfection can be up to every 4 months.
Growing burden on long Covid patients in Western society.
Reinfection in the long Covid cohort will impact further on their ability to perform and is likely to make increased sick days.
Increased covid vaccine morbidity around specific illnesses. Heart and kidney disease will predominate.
Cognitive problems will significantly increase across the population as Omicron tends to have more neurological symptoms.
This is a huge problem for government, coming out of a pandemic with rising inflation.
Combination of the worst outcomes.
Financial and health issues at the same time.
The autoimmune connection is worth investigating. 2 aunts had aggressive rh after vaccination. From active dancing working card playing employed to full throttle immobility. One on my dad's side the other on my mom's.
