COVID-19 autoimmunity reflection
Reflecting on the COVID-19 journey up to this point. In March 2020 when I formally shifted from dementia research into COVID-19 it had not registered that it could take this long.
Although there is some movement in the scientific community to acknowledge autoimmunity in COVID-19 it is still a major hurdle to overcome.
Having expert support and direction from Professor Bruce Uhal and Professor Dolores Cahill has been valuable.
Additionally, the other autoimmune champions worldwide Dr Neil Bodie and Jean Amiral helped us achieve the first international forum on autoimmunity in COVID-19.
The final phase is even harder, to coordinate research on COVID-19 serum, demonstrating the full extent of autoimmunity in this disease.
What a ride!
