A Glasgow nurse, who lost her job after suffering with long covid, is set to appear in front of parliamentary committee today.
Brenda Eadie worked in the NHS for 28 years contracted the virus in March 2020 and ended up in hospital and on oxygen. When she attempted to return to work her symptoms were so severe she couldn't cope.
The 45-year-old now hopes the Griffths bill, which will recognise long covid as an industrial illness, will help the thousands of frontline workers like her who are still dealing with the pandemic's consequences.
