Mary Ladd - Long Covid Reader

In this episode, Sarah is joined by Mary Ladd, the creator and joint-publisher of The Long Covid Reader, a living history from the stories, essays, and poems of 45 long haulers. Mary describes her Long Covid experience and how her prior advocacy work as a breast cancer survivor gave her the idea for The Long Covid Reader. We discuss how it was developed and the community effort that brought it to reality. This episode is punctuated by extracts of the audio edition of The Long Covid Reader.
