@NIHRresearch? What is going on?? What is actually going on?? 1.3 million people in this country have Long Covid. Meditation, yoga, home-based exercises, mental health support will not help myopericarditis, sensorineural hearing loss, visual loss, clots, microclots and the rest

We do not need to WASTE over 1.1 million to answer this question.
Talk to any long hauler. We are not in recovery. There is an ongoing pathological process which needs urgently addressing.

We have waited patiently. Some people have now been unwell for two years and counting. People are deteriorating, they are not getting better.
It’s not only money that is being wasted, but time. People are desperately unwell with resting heart rates in excess of 110bpm one year on. Still hallucinating. Still breathless. Unable to get out of bed, or leave the house
Employers cannot wait for us to recover. People are losing their jobs, homes, families…
Where are the studies trialling antiviral medication in Long Haulers? Trialling of monoclonal antibodies? Trialling of BC007? Funding of studies which try to unpick the pathophysiology? Which look for viral persistence? Autoimmunity?
Please stop funding research which we know will not help us.
