March is International Long Covid Awareness Month and March 15th is International Long Covid Awareness Day. The Long Covid Land Awareness Campaign will share at least one story from a Long Covid patient each day in March & at least one story an hour on March 15th. If you would like your story included in our Campaign, please visit https://longcovidland.com and submit your story in text, video, or audio format. We believe that there is power in storytelling. Generosity in sharing your truth. Strength in using your voice. Share yours!

LONG COVID LAND

Long Covid Land was created and is maintained by Long Covid patients committed to preserving Long Covid stories and resources.

Others have tried to shape the narrative around Long Covid, speaking about us and for us. But these are our stories to tell, and each voice is unique.

We believe that there is power in storytelling. Generosity in sharing your truth. Strength in using your voice.

For millennia, humans have employed storytelling to preserve history, to pass on wisdom and knowledge, to sound warnings, and to signpost safe routes.

Long Covid Land is a repository for the stories of people with Long Covid told in their own voices and in their own words.

You will find instructions about how to submit your story for review here.
