Actually it depends on the signal, whether WiFi is turned on, etc. I used to build mobile apps for luxury clubs who wanted to know which members were arriving at the club (e.g. to go ahead and start getting their golf clubs ready. First world problems, I know). The GPS data we get access to for both Google and Apple includes lat/lng plus a radius in meters that represents the accuracy of the measurement. Depending on the different factors it can be over 100m or as little as about 5m.
They had to install the app and also consent to have their location tracked by the club. They could still use the app without that stuff, obviously, and the platform actually didn’t allow club admins to see where members were at all times—just which members were entering/exiting designated areas. It was actually quite a challenge to get that kind of information to the club in a timely fashion, especially if the club was situated near a busy roadway. You wanted the geofence large enough to give the club time to prepare to receive the guest, but not so large that it gave false positives for members simply driving past the club.
An actual connection is not necessary for wifi to contribute to location accuracy. It just uses signal strength to available access points to triangulate. How folks like Google/Apple/etc. are able to get accurate location data for those access points is unknown to me.
TLDR Android & iOS Location Services will automatically contribute wifi data and correlate it with GPS. This can be audited to prove it's anonymously uploaded but it does happen.
> Among participants who tested positive for COVID-19, 68.7% experienced at least one symptom after 30 days, marking the distinction for long COVID. This prevalence increased to 77% after 60 days of follow-up. Researchers also found that individuals who experienced long COVID were more likely to be less educated, have seasonal allergies and pre-existing health conditions, and self-report greater symptom severity than people without long COVID.
In this study N = 303, and ~67% of these participants had at least one pre-existing chronic condition. Furthermore the symptoms were self-reported through an online survey.
Pointing out these facts because the results are far from conclusive, and thus may not be representative of the population at large.
How can the prevalence increase between 30 and 60 days? Shouldn't this be x days of continuously experiencing the symptoms? Otherwise why do they assume the symptom is from the same continued illness?
Because their immune systems are weak due to unhealthy food and life habits that poor, uneducated people usually have.
We don't need vaccines, we need to start taking care of our bodies. If you look at countries where the majority of people are educated and in good shape like Sweden, covid deaths are near 0 now because natural immunity has taken care of it.
If you think about what payment processors actually do, dealing with fraud is one of the main costs. There's a lot of fraud associated with porn related transactions, so it can make financial sense to just drop the entire transaction category.
