Ah, see that's not what I've been hearing.

That doesn't contradict the claim that more severe COVID puts you at higher risk. Most people with long COVID had mild symptoms because many more people had mild symptoms (and survived) than had severe symptoms. It's the same reason that "most people who get COVID have had at least one vaccine" isn't evidence that getting the vaccine makes you more likely to get COVID.
Ah no, you're right. Bad reading comprehension on my part.
It's an easy mistake to make. Statistics is weird.
