Katie Hayes was one of the first Americans to contract COVID-19. She was a healthy 28 year old woman hospitalized and suffered from various symptoms that she could not shake. Soon after, she realized she was one of the many people suffering from COVID Long Haulers.
The first diagnosis was back in March of 2020, still suffering from heart palpitations, shortness of breath and constant brain fog, Katie got hit with a second case of COVID-19. Unable to get out of bed to know in February 2021 she is almost back to her normal ability of daily life pre-COVID.
No professional or doctor can explain what has happened as she has now overcome her second case of COVID and not from any long hauler symptoms. She is only grateful that she can hike and walk her dog again with ease and go back to normal life.
