The Sick Times

The Sick Times is a platform created by journalists dedicated to covering the Long Covid crisis. We focus on the widespread and life-altering illness that follows a Covid-19 infection, impacting more than 65 million individuals globally and potentially leading to serious consequences. Our reporting also includes related chronic conditions linked to infections, such as myalgic encephalomyelitis, dysautonomia, and mast cell activation syndrome, among others. Unlike many other news sources, we stay committed to addressing the effects of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic without denial, minimization, or gaslighting.
