Lapsody: On a side note, I tested positive for Covid yesterday but I'd doing OK now.

I hope you get well soon. I was just reading an article on long COVID in Scientific American and it turns outs the more vaccinations you've had before your first infection, the better you're protected against long COVID.

Although the studies disagree on the exact amount of protection, they show a clear trend: the more shots in your arm before your first bout with COVID, the less likely you are to get long COVID. One meta-analysis of 24 studies published in October, for example, found that people who’d had three doses of the COVID vaccine were 68.7 percent less likely to develop long COVID compared with those who were unvaccinated.

A study published in November in the BMJ found each additional dose of vaccine dramatically increased protection against long COVID:

...a single COVID vaccine dose reduced the risk of long COVID by 21 percent, two doses reduced it by 59 percent and three or more doses reduced it by 73 percent.
