The University of Michigan Health Post-COVID-19 Clinic provides care to adult patients experiencing prolonged post-COVID symptoms. This clinic for adult patients is administered through our Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation team.
Patients diagnosed with COVID-19 that continue to experience symptoms after their infectious period is over, are known as COVID-19 long hauler. Long COVID-19 is also referred to as postacute sequela of COVID-19 (PASC). The Department of Public Health Sciences at Henry Ford Health is offering a chance for participants to take part in a small study to learn more about PASC. The goal of the PASC study is to explore if metal levels measured in hair samples in those with and without PASC differ. As part of the study, we hope to gain additional insights from wearable activity trackers.
With locations throughout southeast Michigan, Rehabilitation Institute of Michigan’s (RIM) team of experts is ready to support and treat all aspects of recovery from COVID-19.
Team Rehabilitation has developed a Post COVID-19 Recovery Program to assist all patients affected by COVID-19 with their recovery and allow them to return to work and daily living.
Munson Healthcare’s partner Mary Free Bed offers outpatient rehabilitation services for children and adults recovering from COVID-19, including those experiencing "long COVID" symptoms weeks or months after their infection has cleared.
Connect with Mary Free Bed’s ReCOVerySM program to help you overcome lingering symptoms of COVID-19.
Long COVID definition, symptoms, and latest research from the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention
COVID-19, which means Coronavirus disease 2019, is a virus that can affect people of all ages in many ways. SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus that causes COVID-19 is challenging because it can have short- and long-term effects on multiple organ systems throughout the body, including the lungs (which appears to be its main target), kidneys, heart, and brain. NINDS is investing in research that will study the neurological complications of COVID-19.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) created the RECOVER Initiative to learn about the long-term effects of COVID. The goal of RECOVER is to rapidly improve our understanding of and ability to predict, treat, and prevent PASC (post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2), including Long COVID.
The Solve ME/CFS Initiative (Solve M.E.) is a non-profit organization that serves as a catalyst for critical research into diagnostics, treatments, and cures for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), Long Covid and other post-infection diseases.
The Long COVID Alliance is a network of patient-advocates, scientists, disease experts, and drug developers who have joined together to leverage their collective knowledge and resources to educate policymakers and accelerate research to transform our understanding of post-viral illness.
Survivor Corps is one of the largest grassroots COVID-19 and long COVID movements, providing education and resources for COVID-19 patients, connecting them with medical and scientific research efforts, and helping with the national response.
The U.S. Department of Labor is committed to ensuring equitable access to the health and safety of America's workers and providing resources to respond to and recover from the Coronavirus pandemic.
The Patient-Led Research Collaborative is a group of Long Covid patients who are also researchers. We were born out of the Body Politic Slack support group and did the first research on Long Covid in April 2020. We are all researchers in relevant fields – biomedical research, participatory research, neuroscience, cognitive science, public policy, machine learning, human-centered design, health activism – in addition to having intimate knowledge of COVID-19.
Long COVID Physio is an international peer support, education and advocacy, patient-led association of Physiotherapists (Physical Therapists) living with Long COVID and our allies.
We help the Long Covid community discover practical ways to enjoy life while impacted by chronic illness. Long Covid Families is a patient led, nonprofit organization.
The COVID-19 Longhauler Advocacy Project is a 501-(c)(3) Non-Profit Organization dedicated to advancing the understanding of Long COVID and expediting solutions and assistance to Longhaulers and their families through advocacy, education, research, and support.
When the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic began, disability advocates sounded the alarm: acute viral infection leads to chronic illness in a significant number of individuals. Dr. Fauci repeatedly warned of the risk patients would develop myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). Like many other neurological diseases, up to 80% of cases of ME/CFS are initiated by infection. Several preliminary studies are now showing that nearly half of people with Long COVID have ME/CFS.
The mission of the Long Haul COVID Fighters is to provide support for those whose health has been affected by COVID-19, promote public awareness and education regarding lengthy COVID recovery, and advocate for the medical, mental health, and social interests of long haul COVID survivors.
A non-profit patient advocacy organization with one mission: to relieve the harm caused by COVID-19 and post-COVID conditions. We are working to ensure that those affected by COVID-19 receive the support and services they need to live their best lives.
In 2023, Long COVID patients, caregivers, and allies began this Long COVID awareness campaign to unite people across the globe to increase Long COVID visibility, prevent COVID infections, empower patients, share support and resources, educate about the symptoms of Long COVID, and highlight the need to fund relevant research.
Long Covid Action Project (LCAP) is a united, diverse force of non-partisan individuals taking action to end the Long COVID crisis. We demand urgent treatment and support for the Long COVID community by mobilizing public awareness and driving government accountability.
