Brenda Eadie is living on the breadline after her career was destroyed by the virus.
A Glasgow nurse, who lost her job after suffering with long covid, is set to appear in front of parliamentary committee today.
"I was promised that I would have my pension. Two weeks after agreeing I'd have ill health retirement I was handed a letter to tell me my employment had been terminated and I needed to go to the benefits office."There are workers off with long covid some may recover and some, like myself may never recover. This bill will hopefully give some sort of financial stability to those left like this.
"It feels like we are collateral damage. It felt like we were soldiers being sent out to the frontline with no weapons. "I want them to acknowledge the illness, acknowledge that we caught it at work or travelling to work. "
