| description | "Long COVID," also referred to as "Long-Haul COVID or Post-COVID syndrome" is a condition where a person continues to experience symptoms of COVID-19 after their body has defeated the virus. On the bases of couple of clinical studies, we have attempted to describe the most common clinical symptoms that are present 12 weeks or more after having COVID-19, if these symptoms are not explained by another diagnosis. As can be seen, the long COVID is not an easy topic. There are many aspects to this issue because SARS-CoV-2 affects many organs in the human body. However, with the fast increase of data emerging from the vast variety of clinical studies that are currently underway, a better understanding will be obtained of how to treat patients with COVID-19 that have symptoms which have lasted for more than 12 weeks. |
