@elisaperego78 @Nat_E_Pearson @LCawarenessInt @LongCovidAHP @SupportingHH_UK @Ra2myl This article distorts the true history of how the terminology of long covid came about. It wasn't just Twitter, but also other groups on FB etc and the authorship of many blogs in journals & activists that met with WHO after a documentary 'Message in Bottle' by LC SOS. 😔

Five years ago today the term #LongCovid was first used as a Twitter hashtag. A single tweet by a patient linked together a growing, grassroots movement of people who weren't recovering from Covid. Across the world, we were fighting for recognition and studying our own disease

A new study suggests the extreme mental and physical fatigue experienced by many long COVID patients is, in fact, observable in the central nervous system. #LongCovid #m1kx3ltz9mpkgfndy7m" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sciencealert.com/long-covid-fat…

Such an important text. And thank you for problematizing Euro-Western-centric health systems and knowledges. Some of us have raised that many Euro-Eastern knowledges are commonly dismissed, thus I so appreciate the distinction made and will use your terminology and cite this work

A lot of forthright speaking in this paper about #Epistemicide & #PlanetaryHealth. Co written with 3 Indigenous experts. So grateful @PLOSGPH had the insight and courage to publish it. @paimadhu @JuliaE_Robinson @DrNicoleRedvers @drmattjharris journals.plos.org/globalpubliche…
