Anecdotally this statistic is just not right, or the hardships of hard covid hits people very differently. Most people I know (hundreds) have had covid several times at this point. I know one person who believes to have long covid in a debilitating way.

The only person I know who got long covid was unvaccinated, not sure if that affects the likelihood in any way of it sticking around.

I had it twice, and the first time it was a fairly simple thing that went over quickly and the second was a really bad flu-like deal. Though my A/C was out in summertime so it could have just been because of the 90 degree heat in my house or something, idk.

Same, I know absolutely zero people who have gotten long COVID. My brother had it kinda mess him up with fatigue for a few months but he's perfectly fine now.

Got COVID from my cousin during Christmas, still feeling terrible.

He went to the doctor and they didn't even test him. they just assumed it was the flu and gave him Tamiflu.

Tested myself after I got it and came up positive for COVID. It seems that our medical professionals are complicit in the cover-up of diagnoses. Once it left the news people just assumed it was gone.
