Thanks for taking my advice and keeping a dream diary while you struggle through your Covid-19 symptoms. I know it's hard to concentrate when you're fatigued and foggy-headed, but I must say, I was thrilled to see your subconscious blossom onto my screen. I have analysed your dreams and made notes on the ones that specifically stood out to me.

General observations: While my notes seem harsh, it is my duty to red-light your dreams – pun intended – during this delusional time.

Dream 7: You said you specifically remember the voice in which you spoke was meant to mimic your mother-in-law’s Swedish accent, but you couldn’t recall what you had said until your wife informed you it was this: “Yes, tell her they are both little animals, but she cannot eat them.” Dream 13: It’s entirely reasonable for you to be vulnerable and seek out your loved ones in a state of delirium. In your dream-diary, you wrote that you reached out in your sleep and grabbed your wife by the chin and said: “Night fire.”

COVID-19: The Long-Haulers: When Covid-19 doesn’t go awaySeven months into the Covid-19 pandemic, frighteningly little is still known about this new disease. But one thing that is now clear is that Covid-19 is not simply a lung disease. It can attack the brain, the kidneys, the gut, the blood system and more. And for the people now known as the Covid Long-haulers, the effects of Covid-19 can persist for month after month - laying them low with over 60 separate physical symptoms. There are over half a million Covid Long-haulers in the UK alone, and it’s estimated that millions more are suffering around the world, including in South Africa. In this episode, we speak to health activist Robin Gorna - herself a Covid Long-hauler - and infectious disease researcher Professor Francois Venter about the growing medical acceptance that Covid-19 can manifest as a long-term condition for which there is currently no treatment and no cure. Don’t Shoot the Messenger is produced by Haji Mohamed Dawjee and presented by Rebecca Davis with editing by Tevya Turok Shapiro, original theme music by Bernard Kotze and additional support by Kathryn Kotze.
