Covid Long-Haulers Support Group Canada

#LongCovid needs to be centered in EVERY #COVID_19 conversation . It is the most likely adverse outcome. Noone would get in a car if every ride came with a 10-30%+ chance of becoming disabled. Immunity isn't lasting. Not natural or w. vaccines. Stop the madness. #Layerprotections

@SupportingHH_UK Hello, I've sent a couple of emails to you through your website regarding March 15 and I haven't heard back from anyone.

@MoriartyLab The damage done by Covid-19 to the healthcare workforce should be a major focus of the professional associations/unions involved. Good data illuminates the price in personal health being paid by these people. Thanks for the focus

@jvipondmd This is why the data disappeared. The public can't assess the threat level and make demands for a return to safety protocols the governments base doesn't like if they aren't informed how severe the threat is or even confirm if they have been reinfected.

Does public health want to lose the respect of the public forever? By never mentioning masks, and never mentioning longCOVID, they are setting themselves up for failure. Because many people don't want to get sick, don't want to get a disability. They just want to know what to do

Canadian COVID Forecast Sep 23-Oct 6, 2023 SEVERE: CAN, BC, NB, NL, North, NS, ON, PEI, QC, SK About 1 in 29 people are currently infected

@MoriartyLab Yikes. While we await the availability of the new vax that targets Eris, please remember that the return to school always spikes the numbers for viruses of all kinds. Masks and selective public outings in indoor settings are advisable. Layers of protection are always better.

It is strongly expected multiple underlying mechanisms lead to long COVID (re:subtypes). Vagus nerve damage would go a long way towards explaining why so many different organ systems are impacted and why stress and minor illness cause flares. journals.sagepub.com/doi/epub/10.11…

@BonitaZarrillo Celebrating the step-hard work ahead on regulations requiring trust, collaboration. Many thanks to @SenateCA @HoCChamber and thousands of Canadians pushing for historic Bill C-22 @LouiseChabotBQ @#billc22 #CanadaDisabilityBenefit

It's official! Bill C-22 – The Canada Disability Benefit Act will return to the House today. We need to get this past the finish line. Together, I know we can.

Today, all parties came together to support Bill C-22 - the Canada Disability Benefit Act through a unanimous consent motion. We're on the cusp of doing what every single one of us came to Ottawa to do. To help people. To make their lives better.

@Minecraft4n00bs Literally said "do what you can, then stop". Swoosh. That was the point that just flew past you.

Every #longhauler, especially those coping with #PEM in the first 6 mo- 1 year of illness, needs to hear this. It is so hard to be encouraged to just "push through" even when it makes you sick. Learn to do what you can and stop. A new definition of "health", but equally valid.

@Minecraft4n00bs When did we ever, ever, ever recommend "just pushing through"? That is the polar opposite to the message we send to our 18K+ members and all others we interactwith here.

@LongCovidGroup You should really be thinking about what kind of message you are sending to so many in need. Instead, radical rest is a better suggestion than pushing through. Also, you have some homework to do. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36043493/ 2/2
