I have had the same condition as u/sithelephant, and was able to work (barely, I had to sacrifice every other aspects of normal living, family, relationship, hobbies) for most of my life until my condition slowly worsened to the point where I had to stop working two years ago. I am now in the process of being diagnosed with what is likely MS. I am almost completely incapacitated and my quality of life has always been less-than, but is now extremely poor. I shudder to think what we are setting ourselves up for by letting this novel virus rip unfettered through our society, especially schools. I believe China knows the insidious, immune system-crippling nature of the virus, and that is why they are continuing to protect their own with extreme zero COVID protocol. The potential long-term effects we are inviting on working class people and our already insufficient healthcare infrastructure are unthinkable.
ETA:This article is a good read and outlines the possibility of what we are in for:
