    An increasing number of people with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 are continuing to struggle with prolonged, debilitating and sometimes severe symptoms months later.[1] Many were never admitted to hospital and have instead been trying to manage their symptoms and recovery at home. These patients are sometimes referred to as the ‘long-haulers’ or described as having ‘post-acute’, ‘chronic’ or ‘long-term’ COVID-19. Here, we will use the term ‘Long COVID’. With social distancing restrictions still in place, patients in the UK and across the world have been turning to social media support networks[2] to connect with others who are experiencing similar challenges. These patients have raised very credible concerns about the care they are receiving[3] and the uncertainties they face. Their concerns are revealing many implications for patient safety. We have recently shared on the hub the story of Dr Jake Suett[4], one of the many people experiencing symptoms of Long COVID. When we conclude this article, we will return to his story and highlight the changes that he is calling for. However, first, we will focus on the patient safety aspects of Long COVID, highlighting key areas of concern and action needed (a full list of actions can be found summarised here).

    Two years into the COVID-19 pandemic, it is clear that gender differences exist, and that women, men, and gender minorities are differentially impacted by the pandemic.

    The #SolvingTogether platform is a place for people to post their ideas on how to recover services, redesign care delivery and address health inequalities.  #SolvingTogether invites colleagues working on elective recovery to contribute their experiences, good practices, ideas, and comments on these challenges before it is opened for contributions more widely. Once #SolvingTogether is fully live, all stakeholders will have the opportunity to contribute and engage through tweet chats and a range of connect sessions.

    This guideline developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) is intended for healthcare professionals involved in the care of patients with suspected or confirmed Covid-19. It is not meant to replace clinical judgment or specialist consultation, but rather to strengthen frontline clinical management and the public health response. Considerations for special and vulnerable populations, such as paediatric patients, older people and pregnant women, are highlighted throughout the text. This guideline is a product of the contributions of several WHO team members and independent experts from all over the world.

    A recent NIHR report sets out the state of knowledge on Long Covid, focussing on recent published research framed around questions of the nature and causes of Long Covid and approaches to treatment. Symptoms might include, but not be limited to brain fog, anxiety, breathlessness, fatigue, muscle pain, palpitations and chest heaviness. We still know very little about the clusters and patterns of these symptoms and what this might mean for ongoing treatment and monitoring. In this article, Tara Lamont emphasises the importance of people with Long Covid being involved in these studies pushing these issues to the forefront.

    There was a national roll out of ‘COVID Virtual Wards’ (CVW) during England's second COVID-19 wave (Autumn 2020 – Spring 2021). These services used remote pulse oximetry monitoring for COVID-19 patients following discharge from hospital. A key aim was to enable rapid detection of patient deterioration. It was anticipated that the services would support early discharge, reducing pressure on beds. This study from Georghiou et al. evaluated the impact of the CVW services on hospital activity. The study found no evidence of early discharges or changes in readmissions associated with the roll out of COVID Virtual Wards across England.

    Just over a week ago NHS England and NHS Improvement announced the launch of a network of 40 Long COVID clinics over the coming weeks. While there still needs to be more details providing, particularly a clear timeframe for the roll-out of these and information on their locations, I was wondering if anyone has heard about whether there are similar plans for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales? From a little online research at the moment I've only found the following: Northern Ireland No formal announcements from the Department of Health along these lines. The charity Northern Ireland Chest Heart & Stroke have set up their own Covid Recovery Service. Scotland No immediately obvious proposals from this recent BBC News article covering the issue. Wales Quotes from a BBC News article from the Welsh Government that 'it expected health boards to develop and improve access to rehabilitation services'. This also mentions that the 'Cardiff and Vale Health Board is the first in Wales planning to open a multi-disciplinary rehabilitation service.' Have you heard or seen anything to suggest plans are in place in Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales to move forward with a similar plan to the NHS in England? Or perhaps an alternative approach?

    Why do we need GP referrals to this service for assessment? Early patients untested cannot get access to GPs, not being believed, dismissed, told they are delusional. se have been sat for months unable to get referrals ...today someone got a referral and the NHS denied them that too. So we are getting no support. We are having a host of around 200 effects (Ive documented them), most of us are weeks 12 to 33 and having lung cognitive and heart problems. We needs mri and ct scans now and we cant be joining the back of already lengthy outpatient appointments. theresa huge backlog. When is someone going to help us? #longtailgoing viral @postcovidsynd Post Covid 19 Syndrome Support Group International (facebook). Sir Simon Stevens from NHS England doesn't have time to answer our letter, he said the Seacole Centre has been set up...but it only takes tested positive patietns and the phone numbers don't work. He told us to watch himself on the Andrew Marr show..which was about this app. As you can see we still cant get referrals here either as we need GP referrals adn we cant get them/..did no one raise this? I think they did...as I did with Senior Government Advisors. Nothing has been offered to untested patients. The medical community are very much aware that we were sent home so to deny we are sick and label it as anxiety is a scandal. Likewise, graded therapy (I note exercise is on here) is not recommended as we have heart problems and some of us have done it and had heart attacks...dangerous information to share with people suffering 200 symptoms thatt the medical community have not followed us on .... health-problems (1).pdf
