As Physiotherapists we disagree with you! As experts in our field, we’re fully supportive of those that challenged you. It is unhelpful to talk about a profession as if it is an intervention, and equally unhelpful to misquote NICE guidelines. The make it clear … No GET👇

Wrong! Rehab won’t always result in “recovery” from #LongCOVID . We need better acknowledgment of the mechanistic causes of the underlying pathophysiology, to guide science and treatments. Rehab can help manage disability. It’s not a cure and recovery is not certain.

We will continue to call it Long Covid, a name favored by people with living with a very real disease. It’s covering no new ground to also say that infection-associated conditions follow influenza and other illnesses. One does not delegitimize the other. Both are true. Carry on.
