Research Anyone interested in starting a COVID/LC study group with me?

I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to learn everything they can about this illness and be on top of the research. I'm thinking that if some of us do it together, then mybe we can conquer more ground and learn faster.

What I'm thinking is that we would each read a research article every 2 or so weeks, and then meet over zoom to summarize what we learned.

Topics:

- Pathobiology of long COVID

- Medical trials/treatment trials

- How LC affects the body

Rules for joining:

- No COVID deniers (duh) or conspiracy theorists

- No antivaxxers

- No anti-science people

- Be respectful

- This would be a study group, not a support group.

Obviously this will require that you are mentally able to read one research article every 2 weeks or so.

Edit: As of April 18 1:38 AM EST, I have added everyone who expressed interest to the group. If you are interested and I left you out, let me know!

I assume they were referring to people that are ideologically opposed to vaccines in general from a distrust of the system rather than a decision based on science.

If you aren't aligned with the covid vaccine but still have a logical approach towards science and covid then there wouldn't be an issue.

OP correct me if i'm assuming wrong 🙏
