I came to realize that Berenson is a bit of a grifter. I subscribed to his substack, paid money, and then what I got more and more, the self-promotion of his book, Pandemia. It was on every posting, almost badgering at times.

I think his head has swelled so much that he now considers himself a medical expert.
Yesterday, Berenson appeared on Tucker Carlson talking about long Covid. He basically said it doesn’t exist and demeaned people—especially women—who present with such symptoms. He conflated those who try to swindle the government for money with a real condition which he knows nothing about. Long Covid is an example of Post Viral Syndrome which is seen in other viral illnessses. My wife and I between us have 101 years in the health field and we’ve seen this many times.
I guess Berenson knows more than Kory and McCullough, as well as others who have treated patients with long Covid Sorry, Berenson has lost all credibility.
Ya. I somewhat agree. I think he has been a voice in the wilderness from the start. He deserves enormous credit for that. But now there are many other voices. He needs to stick to analysis and not try and provide medical advice. My very healthy wife, in great shape for 65 and with Vit D level of 65ng/ml got exposed in a hospice facility. 10 days of aggressive home treatment wasn’t enough. 3 short days in the hospital was all she needed for oxygen, IV antibiotics and Dex. She had pneumonia. She tested positive for Covid no surprise. But at the 37 cycles they ran the test at water would test positive. 8 weeks hence she has neuropathy, occasional racing heart, horrible taste in her mouth, fatigue and headaches. He did a severe disservice to those who are suffering long after the fact.
Sorry to hear that about your wife Eric. There is an old adage, stick to what you know. Berenson may be a good author, but perhaps his head has swelled by listening to his publicist. May your wife ultimately make a full recovery.
Thank you. That is very kind. She is improving. It’s just strange symptoms. Past couple days she has developed a really bad taste in her mouth. I keep encouraging her that irrespective of the CCP virus, having pneumonia at 65 kills a lot of people. And recovery is a slow process with fits and starts. She’s just a lousy patient cause she never gets I’ll. . Only been sick one time in the 45 years I’ve known her. And that was in February 2020 with all the virus symptoms. Which at the time most were clueless. We figure now it was possibly the Alpha strain. But we will never know. Thanks again for the kind words.
