A timely paper from the brilliant @RebeccaOwen13_ that comes at a crucial point in the @covidinquiryuk
Here we share the #livedexperience of those who were adversely affected during the #COVID19 pandemic
There is a lot to learn.. but first, we must listen!
Please share!
(1/13) As we hear evidence at the @covidinquiryuk about how the emerging pandemic was handled, it is important that the words of those who were affected are also shared.

🧵As I approach 1,000 new followers in the last week (which is mad), I thought I would develop a little thread to outline the projects we have completed/ongoing and in development which have increased our knowledge and understanding of #LongCovid
One post per study..
Francesco V Ferraro PhD, MSc retweeted
We've been sitting quietly on this project for a while but delighted to share this news. We still have some work to do but this could be one of the needed methods to help people living with #LongCovid
A study developed for patients and with patients.
