Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Long Covid and Monkeypox: Discussion
Gino Kenny (Dublin Mid West, People Before Profit Alliance) | Oireachtas source
People listening in may have had symptoms of long Covid. I got Covid recently and I would not wish my worst enemy to constantly have those symptoms every day. It is your worst nightmare. Having it for a week or two is bad enough but I really would not wish my worst enemy to have it all of the time. It is obviously very serious because it affects people's mental health and overall well-being. People want to hear what provision has been put in place for the treatment of people who have long Covid. There is a budget and so forth but what can people expect when they are suffering from long Covid? What kind of services can they get to treat their symptoms?
