  1. WHERE ARE THE #PHILANTHROPISTS for #LongCOVID?!

    The $ isn’t coming from govt.

    We need mass public & clinician education, research, & support. #C19LAP + is eager to lead, but there’s not a soul out there willing to step up for millions w/ #LongCOVID bc of #stigma

  2. The ‘#BillGates problem’: do #billionaire #philanthropists skew global #health #research?

    Personal priorities are often trumping real needs and skewing where charitable funding goes.

    "In The Bill Gates Problem, #TimSchwab points out how much of the generosity of philanthropists is effectively underwritten by #taxpayers. Had that tax been retained, the #government might have invested it in more diverse and accountable ways."
