One of the world’s leading clinics for the treatment of Long Covid is the Mt Sinai Hospital in New York.
In this film Dr Asad Khan and I talk to Dr David Putrino - director of rehabilitation innovation at Mt Sinai - about the groundbreaking work they’re doing to treat long haulers.
Long Covid is a complex puzzle but one part of it - dysautonomia - is responsible for many of the myriad symptoms patients face. The Mt Sinai team have put together a comprehensive plan for recovery and rehabilitation - all whilst working within long haulers' energy limits.
