Sharing some resources about #postCOVID risk. I have absolutely relied on #MedicalTwitter/#MedTwitter and #ScienceTwitter during this pandemic — which, I reiterate, is not over. Sharing here so I can still find this after the #twitpocalypse (#twitastrophy?). Any suggestions about who to follow here greatly appreciated. Where do I find #MedicalMastodon?

@DrOrna but here in Melbourne Australia my oldest is struggling to find a doctor who doesn’t attribute their chest pain to anxiety.

@Susan60 I am so sorry. And I don’t know why so many doctors don’t #believepatients. Well, I sort of do understand. Healthcare workers everywhere are overwhelmed and under informed, and so unfortunately look for the easy way around things.

@Susan60 I just posted a couple of threads that I had had up on Twitter, including tests that the experts are recommending. I hope it helps.
