How Long Until We Solve Long Covid?
The time to solve Long Covid is NOW!
If you or a loved one are struggling with Long Covid, more than likely you have been crying out for scientists to find a cure.
Due to the pandemic, our organization has received more requests for research grants than ever in our nearly 40-year history. This is great news. But, only if we can fund this crucial work.
We are the Solve Long Covid Initiative. We are a part of the leading nonprofit dedicated to supporting key research into solving Long Covid and other post infection illnesses, both by funding scientists directly and by influencing government spending.

Get Involved In Research
Get involved in scientific efforts to study, diagnose, treat, and prevent Long Covid:
- Join our Real-World Data Platform Solve Together
- All of US (National Institutes of Health)
- Clinical Trials (U.S. Nat’l Library of Medicine)
- Efficacy and Safety Study of Efgartigimod in Adults with Post-COVID-19 POTS
- Paxlovid for Treatment of Long Covid (STOP-PASC)
- RECOVER (National Institutes of Health)
Pacing for Symptom Management
Many individuals with Long Covid have learned to avoid crashes after physical or mental exertion (sometimes called post-exertional malaise, or PEM) using PACING and RESTING techniques. Find tools and resources for managing your energy below.
Ways To Get Involved
The Solve Long Covid Initiative will continue to raise the question of “How Long?” to government officials, researchers, doctors and pharmaceutical companies until Long Covid is no longer. Here are four ways to get involved:
Take Action Now!
Educate your members of Congress about a "HOME" for Infection-Associated Chronic Conditions (IACCIs) at NIH.
Long Covid Resources
We collected information and resources for individuals navigating Long Covid themselves or alongside loved ones.
Support Our Work to Solve Long Covid
Fund research efforts to find treatments and cures, advocacy on Capitol Hill and our national advertising campaign to generate awareness of the disease.
Spread the Word About the “How Long?” Campaign
Reinforce the need for research. Help us make our Long Covid public service announcement go viral! Share this video with your friends, family, employers, and online community.
Learn From Long Covid Experts
The ADDRESS-LC trial was designed to assess the potential impact of bezisterim on cognitive impairment/brain fog and fatigue in individuals with Long Covid and is currently recruiting people aged 18-64 diagnosed with Long Covid. This webinar includes an overview of the trial, the requirements for participation, and details on how to join.

In this webinar, Dr. Liisa Selin, Dr. Ayano Kohlgruber, and Dr. Roshan Kumar discuss their study of the exact proteins recognized by T-cell receptors from people with Long Covid and ME/CFS, highlighting how it could produce new disease biomarkers and suggest new treatments for patient subgroups.
