Sanders Introduces Historic Moonshot Legislation to Address the Long COVID Crisis

Joining Sanders on the legislation are Sens. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.), Tim Kaine (D-Va.), Ed Markey (D-Mass.), Tina Smith (D-Minn.), and Peter Welch (D-Vt.).

“For far too long, millions of Americans suffering from long COVID have had their symptoms dismissed or ignored – by the medical community, by the media, and by Congress,” said Sanders.“That is unacceptable and has got to change. The legislation that we have introduced finally recognizes that long COVID is a public health emergency and provides an historic investment into research, development, and education needed to counter the effects of this terrible disease. Congress must act now to ensure treatments are developed and made available for Americans struggling with long COVID. Yes. It is time for a Long Covid Moonshot.”

Estimates show that 2 to 4 million Americans are out of work due to long COVID. For many, the change in job status can also affect health insurance, further complicating treatment options.

Whoa. I don’t live in the US but my wife has had pretty bad long COVID symptoms for nearly two years now, so I hope this passes and we see some good treatments come out of it.

Must Bernard always rock so hard, I ask rhetorically?

Why does he always have to be so awesome?

That too was a rhetorical question. Thank you, Senator Sanders.

His international stances aren’t good, but domestically he’s solid.
