Help For COVID Long Haulers: Dr. Ram Yogendra & Dr. Bruce Patterson Reveal Research – Ask Dr. Drew – Episode 158

For most people, a COVID-19 infection lasts about 2 weeks. But others have reported symptoms extending long after the initial illness: fatigue, shortness of breath, brain fog, and difficulty with memory lasting for months. Doctors are calling it "COVID Long Haulers Syndrome" or "Long Covid" but little is known about the condition's cause. Dr. Ram Yogendra & Dr. Bruce Patterson – viral pathogen & infectious disease researchers – reveal what we know about Long COVID and the latest on treatment & recovery options.  「 BROADCAST ON 12/15/2022  」
Dr. Ram Yogendra is a board-certified anesthesiologist with a background in public health. He worked as an Infection Control Practitioner in Florida where he was also a part of the Jail Linkage Project that worked to conduct risk assessments of inmates to determine those at high risk of infection and in need of HIV/STD/TB/Hepatitis testing, treatment, and follow-up services.
