Tomorrow is #LongCovidAwarenessDay
If you have colleagues, friends or family who’re not informed about #LongCovid talk to them about it. Tell them it’s real & it can be a life-changer even for young people. Tell them to be understanding & supportive of those who live with it.
If you have colleagues, friends or family who’re not informed about #LongCovid talk to them about it. Tell them it’s real & it can be a life-changer even for young people. Tell them to be understanding & supportive of those who live with it.
Tell them it could’ve been you or them & that we still don’t know why some people get it & some don’t after covid. Tell them that it’s not ‘in their heads’. It’s not created by anxiety. It’s not ‘an excuse that lazy people use to skive’. Dispel harmful & stigmatising narratives.
And please also tell them not to mix up their desire to move on & forget all about the pandemic with dismissal of those whose lives changed because of the virus.
It’s 15 March #LongCovidAwareness Day.
It exists.
It’s real.
It’s disabling to many.
It can affect anyone regardless of their previous health.
It needs more research.
It need equitable clinical pathways.
It needs employment fairness.
It needs destigmatising.
Give your support.
