I guess this counts as long Covid, although I associate it more with brain fog and similar symptoms.

Either way, "lung capacity of an 18-year-old" and "15% loss of lung capacity" can't both be true, unless he's suggesting he started with super-lungs.

Or he now has the lung capacity of a 15% smaller 18 year old.

a large lung the size of a small lung
