    does there need to be “long” fibro? Isn’t fibro generally recognised as chronic condition unlike COVID hence no need to add “long” before it.

    Fibromyalgia, long COVID and ME/CFS (myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome) are chronic diseases that majoritarily affect women where the mechanisms are not well known yet, and they unfortunately get peanuts in research funding compared to other conditions.
