    L’exposition « Living with Long COVID » est une collaboration du Musée de Vancouver et de la Faculté des sciences de la santé de l’Université Simon Fraser – offrant un aperçu de la vie quotidienne des personnes qui continuent à lutter contre divers symptômes. Safeeya Pirani de Global entend des gens qui font partie du projet, et comment ils et elles espèrent répandre la compassion en partageant des histoires.

  2. Today is international #LongCovid Awareness Day

    Check this canadian interview with a Mount Sinai (NY) chronic disease specialist. Up to one in five people with COVID-19 develop LONG COVID, meaning three months after having the disease they still do not recover their full abilities.

    The specialist affirms that each reinfection, even moderate, of COVID-19 subtracts between 2-6% of IQ.

    LONG COVID is a disease that causes systemic damage, especially to the immune system, causing T-cell exhaustion and triggering latent diseases or exposing the body to new pathogens from which it would have been able to defend itself before. Worth a listen:

  5. parce que les chiffres ça ne nous parle pas toujours, je vous rappelle qu'on estime à 2 millions de français touché par le #covidlong (dans des formes plus ou moins graves) soit plus de gens qui sont descendu dans la rue pour la réforme des #retraites.
    il y a donc aussi des #malades qui n'ont pas eu la possibilité d'aller manifester dont je fais parti.
