In November 2020, my brother Mateo contracted Covid-19 like so many of us did.  But unlike most of us…he hasn’t yet recovered.  Mateo is now what is known as a Long Hauler, and right now around the world, it is unknown how many others can say the same ("lots" according to Mateo).  In that time, he has been documenting his ups, downs, victories and setbacks through journals, medical records and love letters to You – the listener.  And if he’s come to one conclusion, it is that Covid is Stoopid…

2000th Day 11.05.2026

We started this project with the recognition that we were at 1000 Days.  1000 days of covid, of sickness, of mystery with no resolution.  And now here we are on our 2000th day.  If you’re having trouble putting it into context, maybe you could learn something from today’s episode.  Or maybe, you have something you could teach us...

Journals, April 2021 27.04.2026

As April 2026 comes to a close for all of us, we’re going to rewind the clocks this week.  To five years ago – April 2021.  The weather was starting to take a turn for the brighter and warmer, which carried with it an almost ominous tone: the outside welcoming us, but we weren’t allowed.  We weren’t advised.  And some were barely able.  Here’s my Big Brother Mateo taking us through his Journals fr...

One Ticket for the Throw Up Ride, Please 30.03.2026

For all the ways that COVID has disrupted day to day life, many of those disruptions have simply become the new normal for the Long Haulers.  Doctor’s appointments, meds, when to wake up, when to make sure to go to bed. But with those checkpoints along the day that the mind must remember to hit is the schedule that the body has chosen to keep to.   Send us an email: CovidisStoopid2020@GMail.com Fi...

Journals, Mar 2021 02.03.2026

As the world heads into March 2026, there is certainly plenty to think about; both locally and globally.  And yet, on top of that, Long Haulers are still left facing the daily struggle that is the next appointment.  The next chore.  The next breath.  For many Long Haulers, March of 2021 started to show signs that this wasn’t going to be just another week in bed or another flu.  So let’s listen as...

Breathe or Breathe Not (There Is No Try) 16.02.2026

Last week on Covid is Stoopid , we accompanied Mateo on a journey within.  This week, we’re going to share something very special with you all.  Something that Mateo conceived as a part of his daily therapy and I helped put into practice.  Something crafted in that way that is so uniquely Mateo, and we thought you might get like it to...

(re)Learning to Breathe 02.02.2026

While much of the world has moved on from the utter upheaval of Covid, for many others, there is still a very real fight going on every day.  The fight back to health.  The fight to be believed and understood.  Even the fight to breathe.  But there still remain those diligent heroes fighting alongside the Covid Long Haulers who are doing their best to see to it that every one them makes it across...

End of Days (Sorry, I Mean End of Year) 22.12.2025

For some Covid Long Haulers, this may have been the year that you made real progress in your recovery and hold your health in a new light.   For others, the struggle continues, and the sight of a new calendar on the wall soon to be filled with appointment reminders and medication schedules isn’t so easy.  But maybe, this year you reclaimed something Covid tried to take away from you...and you did...

Journals, Feb 2021 08.12.2025

We’re getting pretty close to the end of the year.  A good time to look back and see how far we’ve come, what’s changed…what hasn’t.  So let’s see how thing unfolded for Mateo and the family in February, 2021. What were some of the early highlights and lowlights that you remember in your journey with Long Covid?  The moments where you realized that perhaps there was more to it than you'd thou...

Thankful For You 24.11.2025

It's almost here, the holiday that asks us to take stock of what we've got, what matters most and how much can we overdo whatever it is that we tend to overdo.  And with that comes reflection, appreciation, gratitude and - hopefully - moving forward having a slightly better perspective than you did a bit ago.  Here's my Big Brother Mateo with Thankful For You . What is your Thanksgi...

Five Years Fancier 10.11.2025
