But so far, large companies are shying away from treating the condition.
Instead, small companies have taken up the mantle in long Covid treatment. They include Axcella Therapeutics (AXLA), First Wave BioPharma (FWBI), Ampio Pharmaceuticals (AMPE), Regencell Bioscience (RGC), Aim ImmunoTech (AIM), Tonix Pharmaceuticals (TNXP) and privately held Humanetics.
Long Covid Treatments: Up To 23 Million
Axcella, Ampio, Regencell and Tonix include long Covid treatments in their pipelines. First Wave is working on gastrointestinal side effects of Covid-19. Aim is testing out a treatment for Covid-19 patients with cancer. Humanetics is looking at lung injuries in Covid-19 patients.
The U.S. Government Accountability Office estimates up to 23 million people in the U.S. have long Covid. Research is still in its infancy, though. Not every Covid-19 case is diagnosed. Further, symptoms of long Covid vary and manifest themselves differently in each person.
The phenomenon isn't new. Survivors of the original SARS virus have reported chronic fatigue four years after the initial infection. The GAO estimates the post-Covid condition could push 1 million Americans out of the workforce, highlighting the need for long Covid treatments.
