Physics Girl Dianna Cowern details severe Long COVID decline and partial recovery
Dianna Cowern, a prominent science YouTuber, developed severe Long COVID after contracting the virus during her 2022 honeymoon. Her condition rapidly deteriorated, leaving her bedbound and unable to speak or read for months. Despite a lack of FDA-approved treatments, experimental therapies eventually allowed her to resume limited work. Cowern now functions at 30-40% of her previous capacity while advocating for better research into post-acute infection syndromes.
