Because you are disabled.

File for disability benefits.

Appeal your case.

How you presented your initial application was the best you could do at that time given what you knew and were told.

But, if you were not successful, appeal (1) because you are disabled and (2) because you can improve on your presentation.

Long Covid Research Findings

 

A study published in late 2025, in Nature Immunology found that chronic inflammation is a key contributor to long COVID.

According to the Boston Globe (December 15, 2025), Dr. Dan Barouch, an author of the study, stated that several anti-inflammatory drugs exist and that Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center has started a clinical trial with one such drug.

The Globe report noted, “'It’s really yet another piece of this big complex puzzle we call long COVID,' said Dr. Ziyad Al-Aly, chief of research and development at the VA St. Louis Health Care System and leading long COVID researcher who was not involved in the study."
