Caring for the Long COVID Patient

Long COVID is impacting millions of people in the U.S. and worldwide, and information and data about the complex associated phenomena are still emerging. Long-COVID or post-COVID conditions cover a wide range of new, returning, or ongoing health problems that people experience following an infection with the virus that causes COVID-19. The impact on disenfranchised populations including immigrants, migrants, and refugees may be heightened due to pre-existing health inequities and structural racism both of which contribute to barriers to health care access for long COVID. This webinar will focus on COVID-19’s long-term impact on physical and mental health as well as the implications for workers, relationships and family life. We will also address concerns for the future of refugee, immigrant and migrant communities with long COVID and recommendations for long COVID assessments and currently available treatments.
