Kate Murry is the Program Manager for Long COVID / long haulers syndrome for the Minnesota Department of Health. This conversation reflects what was known about Long COVID in the scientific and public health community up to Spring of 2022.
Jerome and Kate talk through the ins and outs of Long COVID or long haulers syndrome, exploring how experts are researching the disease and how it’s impacting people’s lives. Kate answers the question, “What is Long COVID?” and fills us in on the Long COVID symptoms / long haulers syndrome symptoms.
Kate then goes the extra mile and answers the questions that we wouldn’t think to ask like:
- How to avoid Long COVID
- How does COVID vaccination protect against Long COVID?
- Why do symptoms of Long COVID vary from person to person?
- What to do if you think you have Long COVID
- What to look for when evaluating practitioners that say they can treat Long COVID
