Now, things have largely returned to the way they were, but the virus still remains. How dangerous is COVID-19 today? And have people forgotten that the disease poses health risks and some are still feeling the effects of poor mental health? For insight, The Agenda welcomes: Isaac Bogoch, an infectious diseases specialist at the Toronto General Hospital; Dawn Bowdish, executive irector at the Firestone Institute for Respiratory Health and professor of medicine at McMaster University; and Kwame McKenzie CEO, Wellesley Institute and director of health equity at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH)."https://vid0s.zeroes.ca/streaming-playlists/hls/221e29a0-e3ef-4fc1-9e5b-e0866a5059bc/429b84eb-d1e1-4cd7-a320-1310a541b31e-master.m3u8https://vid.zeroes.ca/videos/embed/5dmzCkg8nqRjrSHmowZFRw1478042025-05-15T02:59:10.143ZCovid Is Not OverLong CovidYES#CovidIsNotOverNOhttps://vid.zeroes.ca/w/t3s1cThBZk5zog7nmCZtRRhttps://vid.zeroes.ca/lazy-static/thumbnails/7ee38270-03a1-4477-8a7f-cc57089cbca9.jpgZiyad Al Aly - Long COVID: the lasting legacy of the COVID-19 pandemicKirby Institute Seminar Series | 1 December 2023 The COVID-19 pandemic left more than 65 million people around the world with long COVID – a chronic multisystemic illness that can affect nearly every organ system. This talk will provide an overview of long COVID, its effects on various organ systems (heart, brain, kidneys, gastrointestinal and metabolic systems). It will also review the effects of vaccination, antivirals and reinfection on long COVID and discuss the implications for individuals, health systems, the economy, and future pandemic preparedness. Dr Ziyad Al-Aly Chief of Research and Development and Director, Clinical Epidemiology Center, VA Saint Louis Health Care System; Senior Clinical Epidemiologist, Washington University, Saint Louis Ziyad Al-Aly is a physician-scientist; he directs the Clinical Epidemiology Center and serves as the Chief of Research and Development Service at the VA Saint Louis Health Care System. He is a senior clinical epidemiologist at Washington University in Saint Louis. He has several research interests including pharmacoepidemiology, environmental epidemiology, global health, and most recently short- and long-term effects of COVID-19 on health outcomes. He led work which provided systematic characterisation of the post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (also called long COVID) and subsequently characterisation of the increased risks of cardiovascular disease, neurologic disorders, diabetes, dyslipidemia, kidney disease, and gastrointestinal disorders following SARS-CoV-2 infection. His laboratory was the first to produce evidence characterizing the effects of vaccines on long COVID, the health consequences of repeated infections with SARS-CoV-2, and the effect of antivirals on the short- and long-term outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 infection. https://www.kirby.unsw.edu.au/events/...

She was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2018, the National Academy of Medicine in 2019, to and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2021. She was one of the four scientific organizers of last month’s Keystone Symposium on “Long COVID and Other Post-Acute Infection Syndromes,” held in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Professor Iwasaki and I spoke recently about the symposium, the current state of Long COVID research, the debate over viral persistence, research on prolonged symptoms reported after COVID-19 vaccination, and related issues.

Not just a number, but a reminder to do better. We choose to prevent. We re-design. We test. We secure. We warn. We enforce. We maintain. We train We use multiple layers of defence every day. But when someone dies of COVID-19, it's not a tragedy. It's just a number. COVID-19 is killing far more people than our roads. Yet our governments have chosen to ignore it. Relying on current vaccines alone is not enough. But we can prevent infections, by wearing well fitting respirators. By cleaning the air. By supporting people to test and isolate when sick. Because living with covid is not really living.https://vid0s.zeroes.ca/streaming-playlists/hls/233715a1-a403-4ec5-9ded-a90e03a00349/e1ec42d8-6da2-4904-a4c4-7eca63e80e9e-master.m3u8https://vid.zeroes.ca/videos/embed/5mdqoRgj3LJHjJuU7jYxH460552026-03-16T02:21:39.691ZYES#CovidIsNotOverNOhttps://vid.zeroes.ca/w/oepeoDu1XvggRCB6wqXJwqhttps://vid.zeroes.ca/lazy-static/thumbnails/be957d0d-4e49-40e1-b257-604fc7828105.jpgAuthor Avalyn Godfrey Reads Star Dizzy Lizzy | Kids’ Connect Zone Storytime*([originally published March 12, 2026](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RLZbuuji1g))* In this special Kids’ Connect Zone session, author and illustrator Avalyn Godfrey reads from her book Star Dizzy Lizzy and shares her story. Avalyn developed Long COVID as a child, which changed her daily life and made it difficult to attend school and participate in activities she once enjoyed. Through her book Star Dizzy Lizzy, she found a creative way to express her experiences and connect with other children. Kids’ Connect Zone is a program from the World Health Network created to give children a safe, welcoming space to connect, share stories, and learn together.
