About the Newsletter
The newsletter is a hybrid of guest writers with illustrations from Monique Jackson discussing topics about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
Still Ill Corona Diary Creator’s statement:
I am Monique Jackson, an artist and Long Covid Advocate.
I fell ill in March 2020 from a suspected infection of COVID-19 - I thought I was getting better but in July 2020 relapsed and was bed bound for a week struggling to breathe but not ill enough to be admitted to hospital.
It was during this time I started The Still Ill Corona Diary - a graphic journal documenting my experiences of the condition now known as Long Covid.
Since then I have shared resources of other patient online communities, taken part in collaborations, co-designed workshops, give online talks, participated in funding research calls and commissioned to create more artwork.
