Long COVID is real, it is disabling, and it is affecting millions. That's why we must fund long COVID and ME/CFS research to better understand and treat these conditions. To all those struggling and suffering—we see you, we hear you, and we will take action for you.

Thank you @SenMarkey! Pls also take action to prevent infection! As Dr. @zalaly said at the hearing, best way to prevent long covid is to prevent covid. We have the tools—respirators, improving ventilation& air filtration, science-based policies—we need political will to use them

Thank you. It means so much simply saying this, when so many insist on gaslighting the people who are most impacted by this pandemic.

Thank you for your support and thoughtful questions today!

@ABrokenBattery Thank you for seeing us @SenMarkey Please continue to push for action!

Thank you @SenMarkey!

Vaccine injury is disabling and it’s affecting millions yet you are all silent while those people are suffering! Everyone should make yourself aware of Maddie DeGaray . See if you could handle what this sweet child has gone through!

Thank you @SenMarkey

Thank you! Hand-in-hand with treatment comes *prevention*. #LongCovid will affect millions every YEAR if you don't ALSO clean indoor air & make healthcare safer to access.

Thank you thank you thank you! So many of us are in desperate need of research and treatment.
