Guiding Council

MDH, in partnership with Stratis Health, is convening a Guiding Council of Minnesota clinicians who care for long COVID patients in primary and specialty care settings across the state. We are also gathering input from people with long COVID, caregivers, support services, community leaders, and other health care practitioners.
