Denver Post is looking to interview Long Covid patients:

"Have you had long COVID? The Denver Post wants to talk to you"

"While life has largely returned to normal for most people, COVID-19 and its after-effects are still around.

Reporter Meg Wingerter is working on an article about how people with long COVID are recovering, or not recovering, in the fourth year of the pandemic."
