Eric Topol must be one of the leading voices in Long Covid advocacy.  Cardiologist, scientist, author, editor-in-chief of Medscape, and founder of the Scripps Research Translational Institute, Topol has written about Long Covid in publications from The Lancet and Nature, to The Washington Post.  As a clinician a large proportion of his patients are now Long Covid sufferers and he spends a huge amount of his time pushing for advancements in Long Covid treatment and prevention.  In this week’s episode Dr. Topol guides us through his frustrations surrounding the lack of urgency with which the world is treating this condition, the use of Metformin as a preventative therapy, his understandings of the mechanisms of Long Covid, and how we could make significant advancements by embracing digital data collection and technology. The Long Covid review which he authored with PLRC and Julia More Vogel, published in March this year, is now the third most downloaded medical paper of 2023.Living with Long Covid?
