Long COVID Shirt – Retro Symptoms Sold Separately T-Shirt for Spoonies & the Chronically Ill

Long COVID isn’t “just a lingering cough.” It’s a full-body systems glitch with a rotating cast of symptoms, mystery inflammation, and absolutely zero chill. This retro-style t-shirt keeps it honest with the line “Symptoms Sold Separately,” because nothing about post-viral illness has been straightforward — especially the healthcare.

Featuring bold vintage lettering and a warm sunset stripe, this design captures the reality of living with Long COVID — from brain fog to tachycardia to the very real challenge of finding a doctor who doesn’t just Google while you talk. This tee offers visibility, solidarity, and a little humor — because recovery may be uncertain, but your taste in shirts doesn’t have to be.

I’ve personally tried this shirt, and it’s super soft — like “wait, am I even wearing a shirt?” soft. It’s unisex, so it runs large for women — and good news: it barely shrinks, if at all, even after a wash and dry. Lightweight, comfy, and breathable enough for flare days.
