Latest UK data for self-reported #LongCovid for England and Scotland

Long COVID is damaging public health!!

We need urgent investment to continue our response to a pandemic that is not over!!!

Can’t wait to talk to PSI Neuropsychology later today about addressing cognitive changes in #LongCovid . I’ll be talking about recognition of cognitive changes, PEM, impact on work and school and the use of strategies and technology to support daily life. Busy week after #ICIC24 !

#LongCovid is a chronic illness. It’s relentless and unforgiving. One day - all #LongCovid kids will realise how hard it’s been and how brave they are. Last night though - Neath Port Talbot Council honoured this young lady for just that - overcoming adversity and not letting it define her

People with Long Covid regularly ask 'how will reinfection with Covid affect me?'

We & Long Covid Kids - #LongCovidKids addressed this in our 2022 reinfection survey but we need new data to understand it as SARS-CoV-2 evolves

We welcome Visible new reinfection study, take part if you can

I just nominated Long Covid Kids - #LongCovidKids it would be awesome 😎 if you did too.
£5000 could help the team support more families in crisis or create new resources.
