A new Conversation article from Julia Smith, PhD and Simran Purewal, with some great recommendations for researchers working with community partners: “Preparing for the next health crisis: COVID-19 showed the importance of community-engaged research.”

Used up a lot of my precious spoons today for a few interviews with Global! Trying to recover in bed now.

Grateful for the opportunity to share my #LongCOVID story and the findings of our study.

Here is the report kayli 林晶晶 😷 #COVIDIsAirborne’s (of last night’s Ed Yong is not here talk) research group at pippsbc just put out, about the needs of #LongCovid caregivers in BC (which I think can extend to so many complex chronic illnesses alike): pipps.cdn.prismic.io/pipps/Zg2GWjsk… #bcpoli #cdnhealth

Last night's event with the wonderfully thoughtful and thoughtprovoking Ed Yong was recorded and we're working as quickly as we can to get the video edited and then up on the SFU Graduate Studies YouTube channel as soon as possible. It will be here: youtube.com/@sfugraduatepo…

'How we treat COVID long-haulers is how we treat humanity.'

Thrilled to be watching Ed Yong's talk online.

He opens by saying: 'The last few years have been brutal for us.'

I appreciate Ed's validation of our collective and unspoken unresolved grief from the pandemic.

Grateful to be able to do meaningful research with Kaylee Byers, PhD for pippsbc and the #LongCOVID community. Thank you Simon Fraser University for the feature! Let’s spread more awareness of Long COVID and destigmatize it in our communities!

'The fatigue is disabling. There are so many triggers, like even reading an email, or socializing ... could be enough to leave you bedbound.'

A new #SFU report calls for more awareness and investment to support people with long #COVID .

Excellent ventilation here at Ed Yong is not here’s presentation regarding “Reporting on Long Covid”!

Universal masking with N95/KN95s plus rapid testing beforehand means it’s a safe space for everyone.

Airborne safety prevents reinfections. #LongCovid
