Through this sensory-sensitive concert, we hope the public will understand that people with long COVID and ME/CFS are not lazy. On the contrary to that, they are very driven and high-achieving. We hope these people will feel heard, understood and less isolated after the event.

The ticket sales and donations will be used to cover the concert’s expenses. Any profits will benefit patients of the Clinic and disabled people the Alliance serves to pay for their groceries, utility bills, or medical bills short term, provided that they actively pursue reliable treatments.

"I want to send you [Dr. Tam] my upmost gratitude for all you do for me. You are [sic] such a kind compassionate caring soul. During these trying times in the US today and the news I will be losing my food share funds like all the rest of the people is so alarming. Knowing that I have you, my physician who is vastly superior to most physicians out there. You actually truly care about my health and well being feels like a calming warm blanket in a tremendous terrifying time. Thank you with all my heart."
