When I’ve finally recovered, I really want to advocate for other nurses and HCPs who are living with long Covid. We need people to stand up and say this is not ok. @theRCN#longcovid#nurse#longcovidnurse
„I was an active young woman, athletic, adventurous. Long Covid has made me a different person: Depressed, exhausted, unable to do phyical activity. But I continue to fight for the recognition of the disease in society, I want to raise awareness and attention for sufferers.“

To whom it may concern: if you have someone in your life who is #disabled or chronically ill and they tell you they can't do something, believe them. If someone with a dynamic disability tells you they can only do something during a short window of the afternoon, believe them.
Before #covid and #longcovid I was a runner. Lots of friends today running #greatsouthrun in perfect conditions. Today I really miss the running community and event. Today I feel so sad.

Utter contempt for my profession by @theresecoffey Disgusting and demonstrates a complete lack of understanding and respect for the vital role nurses play in delivering expert, safety critical patient care
@dunlin57 My daughter’s secondary school are now offering free porridge in the mornings and have extended the library open time in the evening as many parents are struggling to support children with h/w and pay for electric devices being used.
I can’t help but feel shocked at how many #nurse colleagues with #longcovid are being dismissed under capabilities policy, many not offered achievable phased return. Such a waste of experience, so dehumanising.
