Today I welcome Long COVID patient and advocate Charlie McCone.
Charlie McCone is a 32 year old long COVID patient and advocate based in San Francisco, CA who was struck with a 'mild case' of the virus in March 2020, and has suffered severe debilitating symptoms ongoing two years now. Prior to illness he was in the prime of his life with no health issues to speak of. He was an active tennis player, cyclist and musician, who biked 10 miles a day and ran 10 miles a week, and worked full-time as a non-profit professional. He is currently on short-term disability, is severely house-bound and relies on his long-term partner as a full-time care-taker. Like many Long Covid patients, he has seen over 50 doctors and health care providers since his illness, and many of Long Covid symptoms remain unexplained and untreated.
