One of the most difficult parts about treating COVID-19 is that we’re learning as we go.
I never realized how easy we had it when I was in medical school. Most of the diseases we learned about and studied had been around for decades, so we had accumulated lots of data points and we knew what worked and what didn’t work.
Aside from the fights over mask mandates, vaccination rates and overflowing hospital wards, we will soon have to deal with “long COVID.”
