Welcome to Long Covid-Land. A podcast where we share perspectives and discuss science and policy while amplifying the voices of the affected and those who might help. Long Covid is a poorly defined debilitating syndrome that can devastate the lives of those afflicted and the ones they love. The daily struggles of basic living can be made nearly impossible for some. For others lucky enough to function, adaptation is the only option for managing their lives. Adding to the sting, Long Covid remains hidden in plain sight as a shadow pandemic. It needs greater attention from the media, governments, and research communities. The “In it for the Long Haul podcast” attempts to bring this issue to light by discussing relevant topics, interviewing experts, and telling the stories of those afflicted.
