"In March 2022, the U.S. Government Accountability Office estimated that 23
million Americans had developed Long COVID. Nearly a year later, studies
suggest that number could be as high as 41 million. Yet there is no cure or
treatment available.
Unfortunately, vaccines do not appear to have prevented the LC crisis. Despite
incomplete data about vaccinations, two recent studies from George Washington
University and Harvard that looked at infections between 2020-2022 found an
average of 40% prevalence of Long COVID – even in these discrete populations
that had vaccine mandates. As a Long COVID community, we regularly connect with
new people who have been hit with hallmark Long COVID symptoms regardless of
vaccination status or severity of their SARS-CoV-2 infection.
The widespread presence of Long COVID and the lack of access to prevention,
support, and treatments has already created a crisis for individuals and
communities. A democratic nation cannot defend itself if its people are
battling a disabling disease with no cure or treatment."
