Long COVID hasn’t disappeared. People continue to develop it after new infections—yet the myth that it’s “over” still persists. Bára’s story shows the reality: after her 3rd COVID‑19 infection in 2025, she became house‑bound with severe fatigue and heart issues.

How many #MECFS , #LongCovid, post-infectious disease patients, and their respective loved ones are active on Twitter? It would be great to get a rough estimate of how many folks we can mobilize. Please like and RT. Let's see if this works.

Viele Betroffene mit #LongCovid & #MECFS liegen im 3. Jahr isoliert zu Hause. Die Kraft fehlt vielen, um Kontakt zu halten oder an Festlichkeiten teilzunehmen. Bitte ruft bei Freunden / Bekannten / KollegInnen an, lasst sie nicht aus dem Leben verschwinden washingtonpost.com/wellness/…

Met by coincidence @michaelfranti this year and he performed for us his new song #brighterday . It touched me deeply. I don’t know how often I have heard this the last year and how often it gave me hope on my challenging recovery journey from #longcovid.

Many changes are always needed, of course, but I'm seeing a specific need to shift an aspect of how mainstream media reports on #LongCOVID, #MECFS and other complex chronic illnesses. Recently there has been a slew of articles written by "learned doctors" (or even the 1/

Male university students have walked out of their exam in protest against Taliban’s decision to BAN female students from university education. Several male professors have also resigned so far. This must happen across the country NOW!

HIGH-DOSE EPA for LongCovid or ME/CFS? Recently I spoke w/ an MD who has treated ~40 #pwLC with an Rx omega-3 fatty acid similar to EPA known as icosapent ethyl (IPE, brand name Vascepa) w/ promising results. Turns out, it may help #pwME too. Details👇 pharmd.substack.com/p/high-d…

Before starting with the theories behind #LongCovid, I have decided to do two videos, preparing the terrain for the quest that is about to come 🧙🏻‍♂️ Today I bring you “What is Long-Covid?”: a wrap-up and brief explanation of its most common symptoms youtu.be/S_OJEO5uLLY
