"The Long COVID Survival Guide aims to give people struggling with long COVID practical solutions and emotional support to manage their illness."--NPR, It's Been a Minute

For people living with Long COVID, navigating the uncharted territory of this new chronic illness can be challenging. With over two hundred unique symptoms, and with doctors continuing to work toward a cure, people experiencing Long COVID are often left with more questions than answers.
A support group in book form, The Long COVID Survival Guide is here to help. Twenty contributors--from award-winning journalists, neuroscientists, and patient-researchers to corporate strategists, activists, and artists--share their stories and insight on topics including:
  • getting diagnosed
  • finding a caregiver
  • confronting medical racism and gaslighting
  • navigating employment issues
  • dealing with fatigue and brain fog
  • caring for your mental health, and more.
This vital resource provides the answers and reassurance you need, to take care of yourself and prepare for what comes next.
