Listen now
Description
Brianne Dressen founded React19 to help people struggling with Long COVID and COVID vaccine injuries after being injured herself in a COVID19 vaccine trial, and learning the hard way that there was not a resource for adequate answers, treatment, financial or social support, or representation.  Now she oversees 100 volunteers who have created a provider network, are funding and conducting research, are lobbying congress to address inadequacies of the compensation programs, are fighting court cases, and giving out grants to pay for medical bills of select patients.  Learn more about Brianne's science-backed work to help patients at React19.org. If you have been injured yourself, you can participate in their IRB approved survey here. If you liked this episode, we hope you will click subscribe so that you don't miss an episode.
