Back our long COVID plan

Back our long Covid plan

It is shameful that it took a Scottish Liberal Democrat-led debate for the plight of long Covid sufferers to be heard in Parliament.

The SNP/Green Government’s action plan on long Covid is totally unfit for the scale of this challenge. Many Scots would be better off moving to England where there are well-established clinics and a care pathway.

We need to do much more to help long Covid sufferers. That is why we are calling on the SNP/Green Government to:

Have specialist long Covid clinics in every health board
Train more long Covid community nurses to offer in-home support
Give everyone who needs it access to physiotherapy and rehab treatment
Make sure long Covid sufferers are not penalised financially because they are absent from work for longer periods
Expand social prescribing, connecting more people to community and non-clinical services at no extra cost
Remobilise the Scotland Cares volunteers to help long Covid sufferers
