I really don’t think this has received enough coverage. Assuming Inhofe isn’t fibbing, that’s somewhere between 1-2% of Congress critters contracting long COVID, depending on a very imprecise denominator https://www.huffpost.com/entry/gop-ex-sen-inhofe-retired-due-to-long-covid-after-opposing-covid-aid_n_63f8e9b7e4b0735bf8777e81
I know the Huff Post article says he's referring to "Congress" which makes you think the denominator is, roughly, as you calculated. But they referenced the quote as being from a Tulsa World article which states:
"It is the reason, he said, he left the Senate.
“Five or six others have (long COVID), but I’m the only one who admits it,” Inhofe said during a recent interview."
This makes me believe the actual denominator is ~100.
