🧵🛑 Don't shut the door on us. Closing Long Covid clinics without training healthcare professionals, & without clear care pathways & long-term plans, risks leaving thousands of children & young people without the support they need. And if we don't act?👇. #LCandMe #FundOurFuture

This can't be real life!?.Is this seriously a world where the American White house, THE WHITE HOUSE account just posted a distorted photo of someone the president doesn't like to make her face look huge. Did the WHITE HOUSE just fat shame a private citizen publicly over X?!.WTF.

Great to see ppl in the spotlight setting the example of masking (part. during #Covid surge).Thank you @SarahMGellar for modelling sensible behaviour. Masks reduces the speed of Covid & ALL airborne infections.Keeping ppl from getting sick when we can IS COMMON SENSE!.#LongCOVID.

How often are ppl given a functional diagnosis only for a physical condition to be found later?!.Doctors need to accept not having all the answers rather than seeking to end their discomfort with not knowing by throwing out a functional label prematurely!.#LongCOVID.@LCAIreland.

This thread is basically what happened me. Long Covid, followed by #FND diagnosis which was removed when #HSD was diagnosed, CPTSD followed by dysautonomia diagnosis and most definitely #AuAdhd waiting assessment #longcovid.

I'd suggest avoiding clicking on link. However,this article on fight or flight nonsense was published on Aug 31st. This theory isn't backed up by #LongCOVID research .It isn't backed up by the clinicians treating LC such as David Putrino,Binita Kane etc. !.Potentially harmful!.
