This episode covers two recent and related news stories about a recent report estimating that as many as 4 million Americans may be out of the workforce as a result of Long Covid. While this is an alarming statistic, there are sparks of hope to be found within the data and the potential implications if the government, the health care industry, and the labor market truly begin to take Long Covid and other post-viral conditions seriously.
