U.S. Scientists Study the Pandemic’s Dead to Crack ‘Long Covid’

In a secure, air-locked chamber in the world's largest research hospital, Dan Chertow and a half-dozen other scientists in astronaut-inspired protective gear carry out a microscopic search. They are studying the remains of people killed by Covid-19 in an effort to unlock one of the pandemic's biggest and most disturbing mysteries.

On this episode, Bloomberg Senior Editor Jason Gale joins the critical-care physician on his exhaustive hunt for the coronavirus in the bodies and brains of its victims. By looking for clues among the deceased, Chertow aims to understand how to treat and prevent the disease in the living, including the lingering symptoms afflicting millions of Covid “long haulers.”
