Long COVID and the Biopolitics of Pandemic Timings and Endings

  • Mark D. M. Davis

摘要

In this chapter, I reflect on the science and politics of Long COVID in light of epistemic justice. With reference to communication texts drawn from government, public health and news media, I document efforts to end the pandemic through the procurement of ‘COVID normal’ conditions that obscure and marginalise Long COVID. With reference to testimonial and hermeneutical justice, I consider how Long COVID disrupts established knowledge and assumptions about pandemic timings and endings and augurs for more equitable and just post-COVID politics and related science and practice.
