12 symptoms of long COVID, FDA Paxlovid approval & mpox vaccines with Andrea Garcia, JD, MPH

Thanks for your hard work researching LC. So many are unable to work and unable to claim ssi benefits, as appropriate. It is taking a long time to work out for people who are suffering in life now.

Thanks for this interview. Viral persistence seems to be a real thing. I took the molnupirovir covid antiviral 2 years after getting sick. It was almost a miracle and then symptoms came back an hour later and I’m still living with this nightmare. They need to bring back monoclonal antibodies.

Thanks for the update. One thing you didn't mention: the use of Paxlovid for long covid. Last I heard (it's been awhile) research was being done to determine Paxlovid's effectiveness for long covid. What has happened with that? Thanks for your consideration.

I have been fatigued since. I don’t like it. I’m use to working long hours and now I can’t.

I had covid in Sept 2021 and still do not have sense of smell. I had many lingering issues after covid and although it has been 2 years I still have them...but am soooo much better than I was even a year ago.

Paxlovid didn't work for me. In fact, it made my symptoms even worse. I took it for 3 doses. It was only after I stopped I started to feel better. I took a multivitamin. Lots of fluids , bed rest and movies.

I retired from my nursing job secondary to "long Covid". Ive had the virus x5 and the vaccine x5. The brain fog is just not conducive to administering meds. I have no sense of taste or smell unless you count olfactory hallucinations.... I am considering a trail of Dupixent. Are there any known treatments out there?
