For inexplicable reasons, an amply funded NIH has precisely nothing to show for the billion dollars it received for long Covid research, according to a new article.

"A huge chunk of funding to study a chronic illness like long Covid is rare, so any clinical trials that the NIH chooses to run are crucial choices — and some doctors and advocacy groups have voiced serious concerns about the selection of one clinical trial in particular. That trial would test exercise as a potential long Covid treatment, despite years of research suggesting that exercise could harm patients and set back further study." Sound familiar?
