Today is #LongCOVIDAwarenessDay. There have been protests held in the US, UK, Australia, Spain, and around the world.

Long COVID is a public health crisis that is killing people, preventing people from working, and excluding people from society.

Governments need to stop their denial and start acting!

"an estimated 17.6 million Americans could now be living with long Covid.

“This should be setting off alarms for many people.. We’re really starting to see issues emerging faster than I expected.”"

#LongCovidAwarenessDay

• it's a multisystem disease that can disable you and ruin your life without warning

• even if you feel you'd be fine if that happened to you, you could still try and avoid giving it to someone else who doesn't want their life ruined (especially a child)

• the people who want you to think it's not a problem are the same people who say the economy is great, equality has gone too far and climate change is no biggie, so that should tell you something

• that's it really.
