> no, actually the majority of people didn't get vaccinated.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/world/covid-vaccinations-tracker.html although it's a paywall, does show the graph we want. Which shows clearly -- most people have been vaccinated.

In my country it's higher.

( Granted that's 'vaccinated at all' and protection from one dose isn't going to get you far in 2023. )

> vaccinated, so then I'm not sure why you're so adamant that "long covid" isn't just the effects of the vaccine.

It's a virus that damages multiple organs of the body, across a variety of different levels, and which passes through the blood brain barrier. Of course there's going to be a correlation -- if for no reason people saw people sick with covid and decided to get vaccinated in waves that shadowed the waves of covid itself, along with the first big wave coming around the time vaccines were first made available (since, because in part due to the availability of vaccines, public health officials and governments relaxed public health protections and in some cases, got rid of them entirely) - plenty of space for correlation there.
