Long COVID: My ordealLong COVID is real. The next day I went into respiratory shock and 2D echo showed that my heart had 20 percent function. After 17 days, we asked to be transferred to the Philippine Heart Center, since it was closer to home and my heart was the center of the illness. There, we finally found out what had struck me down: Long COVID. Apparently, once you’ve had COVID, it may quietly go to work on your body, and viruses love the heart.
