Long Covid Podcast
The Podcast by and for Long Covid sufferers.
Long Covid is estimated to affect at least 1 in 5 people infected with Covid-19. Many of these people were fit & healthy, many were successfully managing other conditions. Some people recover within a few months, but there are many who have been suffering for much much longer.
Although there is currently no "cure" for Long Covid, and the millions of people still ill have been searching for answers for a long time, in this podcast I hope to explore the many things that can be done to help, through a mix of medical experts, researchers, personal experience & recovery stories. Bringing together the practical & the hopeful - "what CAN we do?"

39 - Lynn Laidlaw & Tracy Ibbotson - PPI & Research Involvement
Episode 39 of the Long Covid Podcast is a chat with Lynn Laidlaw & Tracy Ibbotson who are very involved in research involvement and PPI (Patient & Public Involvement) but they have had very different journeys to this point.
We chat through some of their experiences, why it is really worthwhile to get involved and how this might be possible in different ways.
If you'd like to know more, you can get involved with Tracy at Glasgow uni or the UK research involvement groups via the links below, or drop me a message if you would like to know more about other countries and I'll do my best to find out.
