The government needs to be very clear on what it means by "long covid". The potential for this to be a malingerers' paradise is huge. When UC came in 800,000 went off the sick list. We can't afford to load them back on. Harsh but true. We are making a rod for our own backs.

Interesting you use 'malingerers paradise' and 'off the sick list' so close together. What's the implication? That UC diagnoses were accurate, and they successfully found 800,000 people faking/exaggerating symptoms?

Directly connecting long Covid and people who are on sickness or benefits is not helpful at this stage. Define it first. I am a bit shocked to see some of the comments from drs like this. I understand it’s a legitimate issue but it comes across as a very sweeping statement

Think tank, we don't "lobby". We challenge. Robustly. We called for action on COVID on Jan 31st 2020, including shutting borders, housing the homeless, and prioritising the healthcare of those high risk from respiratory infection.
