Six weeks ago, I heard there were kids getting Covid and not getting better. Like the adults we've been hearing about, they were long-haulers. At the time, I couldn't find a single article about it. So I decided to do it myself #LongCovidKids #longhaulers .

How about advocating for your medical colleagues to not only wear N95s w/ patients, but also in their daily lives whenever they're in public indoor spaces—if they did that, we wouldn't have to face the very real threat of our infectious-but-still-asymptomatic doctors killing us.
I’m a board-certified anesthesiologist and a licensed patient with #LongCovid:.Please allow your anesthesiologist to continually visualize your nose and mouth. Wearing an N95 while you’re getting heavy sedation is not it. The OR is dangerous. Doctors are not.

Thanks @Chicago_Reader for writing about our bill, the Protective Medical Equipment Freedom Act (HB3853), and why it's important for folks to have the guaranteed right to wear medical masks to protect themselves, their loved ones, and their communities!
