Before the Senate's Health, Education, Labor, and Pension (HELP) committee today, patients battling long COVID and the mother of a teen patient detailed the day-to-day struggles with the condition and the obstacles in getting care.

Also, healthcare providers and researchers described the challenges in managing and studying a condition with a wide spectrum of health impacts and debilitating effect on patients. Today's hearing attracted a large crowd of patients and their advocates that spilled over into a second room.
In opening remarks, committee chair Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said long COVID—affecting an estimated 16 million Americans of all ages and backgrounds—hasn't gotten the attention it deserves. Along with the escalating health impact, with rising risks from repeated infections, he said long COVID is also a drain on the nation's economy, with 4 million people out of work and $170 billion in lost wages.
