My experience: former hiking enthusiast, lover of life, attorney… completely bed ridden by #LongCovid fatigue. Horrific illness, can’t imagine a worse torture. We need help.
For too long, millions of Americans suffering from long COVID have had their symptoms dismissed or ignored – by the medical community, by the media, and by Congress. Unacceptable.
Congress must act now. Yes. It is time for a Long Covid Moonshot.

@PaulGadsden82 I stopped showering and started spot washing with a washcloth. I have felt quite a bit better since. The showers just take too much out of me. I wish I knew why that was.
We must use every tool available to address the #LongCOVID crisis.
Grateful for the work @The_BMC is doing with their Long COVID Clinic & honored to host Dir. Simon of @HHSGov's Office of Long COVID Research & Practice.
We'll never stop fighting for our #LongHaulers.
Just submitted my comments to Senator Sanders office on the #longcovid#MOONSHOT legislation.
If you have the energy, I highly recommend you take a few minutes and do the same.
Thanks.
@pinakooklada I say this every day. I used to be a lawyer at a big fancy law firm. I would easily trade my law license for just a treatment that brings me 70% functionality.
We cannot ignore the public health crisis that is Long COVID. On Long COVID Awareness Day, let us commit to doing everything we can to address this horrible condition. The U.S. government must do more to increase awareness and provide additional resources to develop treatments.
@SenSanders @longcovidlinds Couldn’t agree more. Help alleviate the suffering. FUND RESEARCH. Thank you for your continued dedication to this cause @SenSanders
We are suffering.
We are asking for research funding.
We are asking for speed.
This illness is unbearable. I still can’t believe how bad it is. And we don’t have the help we sorely need.
Please be a hero to so many @CDCDirector . Fund research.
