Toolkit: COVID Long-Haulers In the Bubble with Andy Slavitt
-
- News
A Monday Toolkit episode -- this one focused on the mystery of COVID-19 long-haulers, people who report an array of long-term symptoms. We've got two experts to break down what we know -- and don't know -- from both a clinical and research standpoint. Emergency room physician Craig Spencer and virologist Angela Rasmussen answer your voicemails and emails about why some people become long-haulers and others don't, what, if any, patterns are emerging, where to go for help, and how we are trying to figure it all out.
Keep up with Andy on Twitter @ASlavitt and Instagram @andyslavitt.
