Mark Faghy Rehabilitation Science Research Network for COVID Enjoy!! Very jealous, loved Toronto when I went on 2019! Looking forward to the big day tomorrow 🙌
OT_Skiff 💚 Rehabilitation Science Research Network for COVID Happy to share my slides in advance if you wanted time to review them?
Understand it can be a challenge for people with LC to take all the info in and follow the talk at the same time.
Nothing to hide, just sharing the science 💪🏼
Wonderful first day in Toronto 🇨🇦 even though it rained (a lot).. now time to get down to work with the wonderful Rehabilitation Science Research Network for COVID group.
I might need an extra coffee as my body clock had me up at 4 am (local time) but it will be worth it!

We are over four years into this and I still meet colleagues who don’t know anything about #LongCovid and claim they don’t see it in their practice.
On this #LongCovid AwarenessDay I want all of my physio colleagues to consider that maybe they do.
