I use the word "tsunami" as we went through the pandemic earthquake that is Covid, but we're very much in the thick of dealing with the tsunami after effect that is Long Covid. Unfortunately, the damage was done and (at least in the U.S., but I believe it's rippled throughout the world) and we have a combination of apathy, ignorance, and "story fatigue." Yes, story fatigue-just as the Ukraine war is receiving less press, people are tired of talking about Covid, yet most don't know what Long Covid is. I covered how "we got here" in my John Oliver-style post called " Mad Vax" that covered the politics of Covid (largely ignoring, bungling, and diminishing vaccines and masks-going so far as the deranged "Circus Peanut" prez mocking Biden and other dimwits like Lauren Boebert calling them "face diapers." Um.it is an airborne virus and yes, it is far more deadly than the flu. Not just ignorance, the Theodoric of York, Medieval Barber (Google that) medical community is still doling out CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy-think your way out of it) and GET (graded exercise therapy-exercise your way out of it) which are barbaric approaches to medical conditions. You gotta be kidding me? We are approaching three years into this pandemic nightmare's tsunami after effect and we have doctors in a major hospital in a major city asking me what is Long Covid? Wow. As my wife and I tried to explain why I was there (I was in so much pain, my communication was "good not".more than normal.) I explained the infusions and that I have Long Covid. I had a wicked migraine and exacerbated chest pain. In addition to being a Bleacher Report writer, Seth is the Monday Night Raw reviewer for and a host for Radio.After my third day of Long Covid IVIG (Intravenous immune globulin which is a product made up of antibodies given intravenously to boost the immune system) in my second round of infusions (four days for four hours every three weeks,) I was sent to the hospital-one of nearly 200 doctor appointments, lab tests, and ER visits over nearly three years of Long Covid. Seth Guttenplan is a teacher by day, writer by night. Please leave your questions and comments below. How would you answer these questions? What questions were you left with after Raw last night? Let’s hope the WWE builds up Survivor Series to be one of the biggest events of the year. The WWE makes itself and its writers seem weak or lazy when they drop an angle without any true ending. Regardless, the WWE needs to continue to invest in storylines they begin. It seems odd, but at least it is something different. Will we have a World Heavyweight Championship match, but no WWE Championship match? However, time is running out for the WWE to answer these questions, and time is running out until Survivor Series 2012. Raw had very high expectations after an eventful, surprising and, at times, controversial pay-per-view in Hell in a Cell Sunday night. Team Ryder: Zack Ryder, Santino Marella, Justin Gabriel, Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara Team Cesaro: Antonio Cesaro, 3MB and Wade Barrett Therefore, the WWE should look to add more traditional Survivor Series matches to the card including: This event is supposed to be mainly traditional matches along with a World Title match. Last year’s Survivor Series had one traditional five-on-five elimination match. Dolph Ziggler or a similar match involving AJ and Vickie GuerreroĬ) Hopefully more traditional Survivor Series matches Sheamus in a rematch for the World Heavyweight Championshipī) John Cena vs. What should be expected for the rest of Survivor Series?Ī) Big Show vs. The issue with this match is that it basically took every match from Hell in a Cell and made it into one big match at Survivor Series. Team Punk (CM Punk, Team Rhodes Scholars, the Miz and Alberto Del Rio). Last night on Raw, it was announced that it will be Team Foley (Ryback, Team Hell No, Kofi Kingston and Randy Orton) vs. After the announcement of the main event for Survivor Series, the rest of the card remains questionable.
