What is Long Covid?
Long Covid is a blanket term which includes both ongoing Covid-19 symptoms and new symptoms which may develop as a result of infection. Long Covid can affect people of any age and background, including children, regardless of the severity of their original symptoms.
As Long Covid is an emerging condition, there is a lot we don't know about how it works and affects people in the long run. However, as the situation goes on, and the people who have Long Covid symptoms share their experiences and stories, we are developing a better understanding of what Long Covid means and how we can manage it.
Signs and Symptoms
There are many different signs and symptoms of Long Covid and your symptoms may change over time. NHS Inform provides detailed information on potential signs of Long Covid on their dedicated website page:
