I am glad to have these reports as they validate my personal experience.
The patient, (me) seems to be the last to be asked about symptoms. And as I know, we are encyclopedic information simply because we go through the symptoms one step at a time while doctors who have not been educated keep shoving us through the healthcare world as tho’ we were cars in a car wash.
I do not say this casually or without great sadness as I have carried Chronic Lyme with me since 1985.
Now I visit a miraculous clinic that focuses on the individual the way doctors did before dollars and insurance companies took over.
Keep doing the research. Just don’t forget who it is meant to help.
After two bouts ‘ with Long Covid ,being heard seems to be the first step in being able to heal.
But of course. That is what human healing comes from: compassion, empathy, and clear knowledge, learned by talking to the actual carrier.
Thank you again for being at one end of the answers.
Thank you for the comprehensive update, as usual. It makes sense that the excess death rate for hospitalized patients was considerably higher than for the non-hospitalized cohort, and that their rate continued to rise. But it's worth emphasizing that even people who weren't hospitalized experienced excess deaths.
As you noted, effective pan-coronavirus and nasal vaccines would be a significant step forward, especially if they are able to reduce the likelihood of infection. However, it will be challenging to know what to do from a public health perspective given low vaccine uptake.
When Dr. Al-Aly testified before Congress, he called for creation of a new NIH branch dedicated to IACC. Aside from being a clinician, I have a daughter who developed EDS with complications following an infection. What will it take to create a new branch (yes, $$ of course), and how can I or any group of individuals move this along?
