🚨Another wake-up call on dangers of #LongCovid: “Worry grew as her heart palpitations continued, her family claims medics told Rhian the mysterious symptoms were likely stress. Her family now know she suffered an undiagnosed heart complication called myocarditis” #MedX ⬇️⬇️⬇️

The standard response from Government when asked about #LongCovid care.⬇️ Sadly Andrew Gwynne MP’s answer is far removed from patient experience, many of whom feel utterly abandoned by the Government, & displays an utter lack of comprehension of what is needed for #LongCovid healthcare.

April ‘22 Andrew Gwynne MP wrote this ⬇️. Here we are well over 2 years later, there are even more people with #LongCovid, #Covid19 is still rife, yet several #LongCovid clinics have closed or have cut back. The Government - in which Andrew Gwynne MP is Public Health Minister - remains silent.

Interview with Emma Samms MBE: “at some point I had had myocarditis, which has scarred my heart. The consequences of #COVID… it’s terrifying to me that people think we are no longer in a pandemic.” #LongCovid #POTS

“Nurse: COVID hospitalizations are increasing again. Doctor: I know. N: Are we fighting an endless, losing battle against SARS-CoV-2? D: No, you are wrong. N: Oh, you have different ideas, doctor? D: We are not even fighting.” #COVID19 #CovidIsNotOver #LongCovid

This really is shocking and disappointing. #LongCovid is a massive ongoing immunological quandary devastating millions of people's lives, yet not a word about it at this major immunology conference. Morally and professionally unjustifiable. EFIS #ECI2024

“New research from the University of Kentucky shows compelling evidence that the cognitive impairments observed in #LongCovid patients share striking similarities with those seen in Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.”

“Folks have no concept of the irreversible damage their #Covid infections are inflicting… We’re told there’s no choice, & since we must “coexist” with it, the powers-that-be are literally marketing & normalizing premature death as if it’s our choice” ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #LongCovid

Our condolences to the family and friends of Sérgio Mendes: “The news was announced in a statement by his family, who cited the long-term effects of COVID-19 as his cause of death.” #LongCovid
