Transcript
People with long COVID need support on just the daily things. Your cleaning, your food … Being supplemented or at least given a cheaper option for like if you need to use a taxi, or Uber, or what have you to get to an appointment. Because that day you can’t physically drive. I don’t have that luxury. I don’t have the extra money to take a cab, or an Uber on the days I feel I can’t drive. So I still drive and really hope that nothing happens. And I know that I’m not the only one who struggles with that.
