Permanent Head Damage

I had a peritonsillar abscess and it took a long time to heal up even after the antibiotics. The doctor was proposing that I have my tonsils removed but I decided to wait and see. Supposedly this is a rare complication that can develop after a bad sore throat. I'm really careful about sore throats now.
I can't say I've noticed. I've had a bad cold and one particularly bad throat infection (left it for a week then it was diagnosed as strep throat and fixed with antibiotics, but had lingering symptoms for a long time) that took months to resolve since, but run-of-the-mill colds seem the same to me.
Did you catch Covid? How bad was it, if you did?
I'm no expert but this really doesn't seem like the right solve for falling birth rates.
