Clinical Resources

There are a growing number of organizations and clinical studies being established to assist long haulers and those who support them.
- Post-COVID Care Clinics Searcher: With the large influx of long haulers entering the medical system, some hospitals and medical groups have created specialized Post-COVID Care Clinics.
