Long COVID is now the most prevalent chronic disease in American kids, surpassing ASTHMA. Children/ teens are NOT immune to damage from covid.
"Long COVID is common, affecting up to 10% to 20% of children with a history of COVID-19."
That means ANY covid infection.

I do not like the term visual novel being used for Japanese style graphic adventure games such as Snatcher, Phoenix Wright, Danganronpa, etc. so much like how STG is short for ShooTing game I say we call them Japanese AdVenture games or JAV for short to avoid confusion

We need to stop using “hallucinations”. If you ask me the plot for THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE and I tell you it’s about a llama who fight for the San Patricio Brigade you wouldn’t say “Oh, cool, John hallucinated an answer” you’d say “John is wrong.” Stop grading these things on a curve.
despite popularised beliefs, LLMs are not fit for medical applications. SoTA models produce "non-trivial levels of hallucinations" even w inference techniques like CoT & search augmented generation: arxiv.org/pdf/2503.05777
of surveyed clinicians, 53% use LLMs daily & 91% encountered hallucinations
