UK BMA and RCN ask Government to recognise Long COVID as an occupational disease Unions representing Doctors and Nurses in the UK are asking the government to recognise the long term impacts of COVID-19 on health and care workers. “The UK Government needs to act quickly and provide support now to the many doctors and nursing staff, and their families, who have suffered significant financial losses as a result of contracting COVID-19 in the workplace and then developing Long COVID.”

What Can We Learn Four Years On? A Multi-Centre Service Evaluation Exploring Symptoms, Functional Impact, Recovery and Care Pathways in Long Covid — Cassie Lee et al. "The persistent clinical and socio‐economic burden of LC is clear, with only 20.8% of participants working at pre‐infection capacity. Policymakers and service leaders should act to close the gap between LC service provision and patient need. There is a critical window of opportunity for ICBs to redesign services in collaboration with and informed by the patients' voice"

News Release 6-Nov-2025 COVID-19 vaccination lowers long COVID risk in adolescents Peer-Reviewed Publication Columbia University Irving Medical Center FacebookXLinkedInWeChatBlueskyMessageWhatsAppEmail Nov. 6, 2025--Adolescents who were vaccinated against COVID-19 were less likely to develop long COVID after their first SARS-CoV-2 infection than unvaccinated peers, finds a new study. The study, led by the NIH-funded RECOVER Initiative, is the first to examine the potential benefits of COVID vaccination in adolescents beyond lowering the severity of initial COVID symptoms. “These findings provide evidence that COVID vaccination has an important secondary effect in helping to mitigate the risk of long COVID in adolescents,” says Melissa Stockwell, a pediatrician at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and clinical senior author of the study.

The Tyee This Physicist Says We Don't Take COVID Seriously Enough A thorough article with interview with MIT-researcher Yaneer Bar-Yam and a summary of the many harms Covid infections may cause and what preventative measures that should be taken . “The fight in the big pandemic public health story,” says Bar-Yam, “has moved from proving COVID is airborne to building a public health system that acts like it.”

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome in post-COVID-19 long-hauler patients is associated with platelet storage pool deficiency — Gunning et al. "We have validated our previously reported data, which indicates that most POTS patients have a platelet delta granule storage pool deficiency. We do not propose that platelet dense granule deficiency is the etiology of POTS; however, it appears that the condition is somehow associated with POTS."
