If you employ someone who is suffering from “Long COVID,” it’s important for you to know that s/he may be entitled to protection under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Individuals with Long COVID can experience new or continuing symptoms over weeks or months after being infected with the virus that causes COVID-19. An extensive and varied list of symptoms are known to be associated with Long COVID.
A person with Long COVID considered to have a disability are those individuals whose “…condition or any of its symptoms is a ‘physical or mental’ impairment that ‘substantially limits’ one or more major life activities.”1
Because Long COVID is a condition that can cause lung damage, heart damage, neurological damage, or lingering emotional illness and other mental health conditions, it is mental or physical impairment. Because it can also affect activities like breathing, concentrating, communicating, sitting, standing, and walking, Long COVID may substantially limit a major life activity.
Not all cases of Long COVID will necessarily be considered a disability. An assessment is required to determine if an individual’s Long COVID condition substantially limits a major life activity.
If your employee’s Long COVID qualifies as a disability, s/he is entitled to the same ADA protections from discrimination as other disabilities.

Trenton's Energy Master Plan is noble in its intent but will have a disastrous impact on New Jersey's economy. Businesses and residents alike will be saddled with sky high energy taxes and exorbitant energy prices that will cripple the economy. New Jersey must adapt to Climate Change. But we need to have a transparent public discussion so that we don't end up with policies that are neither feasible, affordable, or reliable.

The eight county, 3,700-square-mile region that comprises South Jersey has historically weathered economic uncertainty via its diverse assets ranging from ports and hospital systems to renowned higher education institutions and tourism, but when the coronavirus pandemic struck last year, each of those components was heavily impacted: Hospitals were beset with COVID-19 patients and associated financial costs, higher education institutions were operating under strain, tourism was hampered, and the region’s ports saw drastic supply-side related reductions in cargo, with, for example, total volume at South Jersey Port Corporation dropping from 4.07 million tons in 2019 to precisely 3 million tons in 2020.
