Some of the patients of the first Covid-19 wave are still suffering symptoms that make them unable to work, almost unable to get through daily activities.

When they can get a doctor's attention, no one knows what treatments to try.

The private US medical system can't cope with the chronic illnesses that Covid-19 will leave behind in many of the people who catch it.

It is also lousy at trying to prevent the chronic diseases that make people vulnerable to a bad case of Covid-19.
