In an insightful interview, entrepreneur Alex Meshkin and Dr. Steven Murphy engage with Dr. Wes Ely, Director of SIBS at Vanderbilt University and a renowned long COVID critical care specialist. Driven by their shared mission to restore humanity to medical care, they delve into the pressing issues surrounding long COVID and the ICU Survivorship Program.
Dr. Wes Ely emphasizes the critical need for support and resources for long COVID patients. He sheds light on the ICU Survivorship Program, affectionately known as SIBS, which provides essential assistance to individuals facing the aftermath of critical illness and brain dysfunction. Through free support groups, disability services, and insurance guidance, the program aims to help patients overcome the challenges that often lead to financial instability, homelessness, and loss of livelihood.

Dr. Ely shares compelling statistics, revealing that a significant percentage of non-hospitalized COVID patients develop long COVID symptoms, including cognitive deficits, heart problems, and extreme fatigue. The interview also addresses the misconceptions surrounding long COVID and the urgent need for recognition and support for the millions of individuals affected.
Dr. Ely emphasizes the importance of listening to patients and their firsthand experiences. He addresses the skepticism within the medical community and urges a shift in perspective, acknowledging that patients are experts in their own illnesses. By amplifying their voices and providing comprehensive care, we can address the public health catastrophe that long COVID has become.
Entrepreneur Alex Meshkin and Dr. Steven Murphy commend Dr. Ely's commitment to his patients and his dedication to transforming healthcare. Through their enlightening conversation, they advocate for increased awareness, support, and funding to address the long-term effects of COVID-19 and provide much-needed care for those suffering from long COVID.
