HHS Launches Office of Long COVID Research and Practice
Current analysis suggests that anywhere from 7.7 million to 23 million Americans have developed Long COVID, and roughly 1 million people are out of the workforce at any given time because of it. This figure is equal to about $50 billion annually in lost salaries.
- Services and Supports for Longer-Term Impacts of COVID-19 outlines over 200 federally funded supports and services that may be available to those impacted by the pandemic and Long COVID.
- The National Research Action Plan lays out current U.S. government conducted or funded research and a pathway for future inquiry. The National Research Action Plan also recommended the formation of the Office of Long COVID Research and Practice.
