Argentina has no dedicated Long COVID clinics, no disability insurance, and no government recognition, leaving patients to diagnose themselves and search for informal care.

Only a couple of Long COVID studies are being conducted in Argentina. One includes over 100 patients and involves analysis of MRI brain scans.   Patients live not only with Long COVID but also the stressful situation of living in a country with high inflation and poverty, while they create their support chat groups to share knowledge, treatments, and information.
