All patients deserve to receive care without the risk of being infected with something.
It is absurd that healthcare is allowing anyone to be infected with Covid while trying to receive care, mAb infusion, get a vaccine, etc.
Some of these patients already have Long Covid..

Long COVID taught me to slow down and stop trying to meet able-bodied benchmarks - The Sick Times My life before Long COVID was very busy.

"Navigating the medical system with these conditions has been a frustrating journey I will never forget because of the inequities that I face as a disabled person."

Develop Evidence-Based Clinical Guidelines/Long Covid standard of care (global)
-Medical schools need to provide proper Long Covid education.

➑️Long Covid clinics/teams could be helpful to patients if they have the proper Long Covid education/knowledge.

Many patients feel that Long Covid clinics have not been helpful over the years.
In order for Long Covid patients to receive real care doctors/specialists must have knowledge about Long Covid.
Whether we have Long Covid clinics or not--HCWs should be educated about Long Covid.

Patients are concerned about the future of WashU’s long COVID clinic Long COVID patients who visit a Wash U clinic say they’re being directed to another center after the clinic’s medical director has moved on.

β€œCOVID is still making people sick. We have people who just joined the group a few months ago … there's people who are just getting very, very, very sick for the first time, and I don't want them to have fewer resources.”

Cuts to public health funding, Long Covid clinics closing, & too many other steps backward while
hundreds of millions are being impacted.
Too many people are trying to survive this misery.
Governments, we need you to start taking real action to move forward.

As we wrap up another Long Covid Awareness Month, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to all those with Long Covid, advocates, organizations, allies, and voices who came together to raise awareness worldwide. Your efforts are driving the continuing push for change and highlighting the urgent need for action for everyone impacted by Long Covid. The road is rough and it doesn’t stop hereβ€” we’ll all keep raising awareness every day, whether it’s online, at medical appointments, in emails to government officials, in conversations with friends and family, or in any way we can. Because we know COVID doesn’t discriminate, & anyone is at risk of developing Long Covid.

I'd like to thank the kind person who made my piece for the banner as I've just been too unwell and had too much going on.
