Patients with long COVID, a condition characterized by persistent symptoms after a COVID-19 infection, are taking it upon themselves to educate doctors about their disease. Long COVID shares similarities with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), and studies show that about half of long COVID patients meet the criteria for ME/CFS diagnosis. Patients and advocates are organizing a medical education event called "The Untreated Epidemic: Understanding and Treating Long COVID and ME/CFS" to bridge the gap between patients and doctors. The goal is to provide doctors with existing knowledge about ME/CFS to help them recognize and treat long COVID symptoms, as there are not enough specialized clinics to meet the demand for care. Patients emphasize the importance of doctors acknowledging their experiences and working collaboratively to find effective treatments.
