Medicine's ongoing failure to deal with Long Covid did not begin in 2020. It happened decades before that. Nothing has changed since, all of this has been and continues to be intentional. There is something deeply wrong with parts of this industry, in how they deal with their own failures.
Intro to a 1993 documentary on #MECFS When medicine doesn’t understand an illness, patients are often mistreated. New discoveries challenge existing beliefs, but in the meantime, for those suffering, life can be a living hell.
Video of presentation on #longcovid. She immediately rules out any discussion on the overlap between long Covid and #myalgicencephalomyelitis. The medical profession’s complete mishandling of ME is, in part, why there’s nothing available for long Covid. @crick.ac.uk

Pension letter today, short because there aren't many numbers and they are small. I retired on 9-Feb-2026 age 59 (due to disability, the #LongCovid life-upside-down mess). Very strange feeling. Cash runs out in 7 years, state pension age in 2033, but hey ho for now. Housebound & fractured pelvis.

"…pharmaceutical firms want to await a concrete biomarker that could serve as a clinical trial end point before putting any resources toward long COVID studies, but it’s not possible to find such a metric without more studies." They need proof. We need hope. #Medsky #LongCOVID
