Masked Man Politely Challenges this study:

I wonder about the limitations of this study. I'm a bit wary of two diseases that both affect the central nervous system...

I'm going to go out on a limb and challenge this study a little...
To me The way this study is worded is actually hard for me to accept in the sense that It just seems like if a person that has MS and then gets covid they are bound to have more overall symptoms from both diseases. I don't see how that can't be. I guess none of these MS patients caught long covid..

For the record COVID-19 can affect the nervous system, it can also affect how the brain sends signals to the muscles of the body to coordinate movement. Some people with Long COVID have trouble with coordination (ataxia), loss of movement (bradykinesia), tremor, or sudden muscle twitching or jerking (myoclonus).

I'm politely question just this particular study based upon I think its based on principles that are too subjective to prove.I don't question its findings so much as I question its message to the readers. I just think While maybe covid doesn't make MS worse it certainly doesn't make it better... I don't think catching covid which is a disease that affects the central nervous system should be caught by people with MS or without MS is my message. 

I personally don't recommend people catching covid who also already have MS... 

Again the way this study is worded such as "She, however, noted that the results may differ for younger people" baffles me as to what that statement means. I just don't know MS symptoms are so horrible..

..to some people MS is worse than Parkinson's disease but you can still think
..in some sense the symptoms of MS outweigh covid's symptoms..

There's also Swedish study that says covid may double one's risk for getting MS.

Anyway for me I'm going to wait and suspend judgement on this particular study and give it a "time Will tell" and watch more studies on the subject.

This is just my opinion and I'm not a doctor and have no reason to disbelieve the study in general or the people in the study and what they say... If they say they don't feel worse I have no reason to disbelieve them but I'm just a little skeptical and look forward to hearing more studies on the subject of covid and MS.

Don't let my opinions sway anyone else opinions on this study.
Don't dismiss this study on account of my feeble opinions.

...My comment should be considered but mere food for thought

...Each reader must do their own research and use their own free thinking and reasoning to decide for themselves how they feel or read a study. I guess I'd like to see a study that included younger as well in it and I'd definitely mask up and not catch covid if I had MS and I'd insist nurses and researchers mask up when they do these studies directly on people with MS as well to be on the safe side. I'm not a professional but I just personally don't see how two diseases that both affect the central nervous system can't cause more symptoms, and more problems for everybody.
