    The interview with Akiko Iwasaki was good, nice clear listing of various hypotheses about what's causing Long Covid, including microclots (probably a downstream effect of something else), persistent virus, reactivation of herpes viruses, particularly EBV, leading to autoimmunity particularly in female patients. She mentioned clinical trials of anticlotting agents, and paxlovid. Runs from 10 to 20 minutes on the program.
