The mobilization against COVID-19 was impressive. A similar investment is needed to understand and treat the chronic resulting illness.

    I got covid in March of 2020. My health has been on a steady decline ever since. I have developed so many ailments and I’m in so much pain that I can no longer work. I’m 33 years old and walk with a cane. I’ve been waiting for disability for two years now. I’ve already been denied twice. I’m on the verge of homelessness. There’s no help. My life is ruined and there’s absolutely nothing I can do about it.

      Holy shit, I hope you can find the help you need. Hang in there and keep advocating for yourself. I know from personal experience that navigating healthcare and government benefits is a living nightmare. Keep on going, even if it feels hopeless. Things will fall into place for you, I’m so sorry you’re going through this but things will get better.
