Understanding Recovery Despite Lack of Cures
There is a widespread belief that since there is no cure for long COVID or chronic fatigue syndromes (CFS), recovery is impossible. However, many individuals are successfully recovering, highlighting that while a definitive cure may not exist, pathways to improvement can be forged.
