Covid is still with us and we are still learning about the virus all the time. We are learning about how it is turning up in people's heart muscle and how it is crossing the body-brain barrier. If you have met somebody with long Covid, as I am sure the Ministers of State have, you will know they look absolutely the same. They look in the full of their health. Despite this, they are managing their energy from day to day. I wanted to ask the Minister specifically about dedicated services to address long Covid in each of the regions and about the steps the Department is taking to improve these services and supports for people who are suffering in the long term from this new virus.
