So does that mean there's an agreed-upon definition of long Covid now?


It’s still basically if you say you have it, then you have it. All the definitions are still so loose as to be “catch anything” filters. Worse, you will rarely find any effort made to verify the claim with a clinical diagnosis. Worse still, there’s the minor matter of cause versus correlation. It’s still a crapshoot across the board with few exceptions.
