WHAT IS LONG COVID?

Long COVID is a longer, more complex form of COVID-19. It can also be referred
to as 'Long Haul COVID' or 'Post-COVID Syndrome'.

Long COVID is a unique disease in that patient-led groups have been amongst the
first to bring awareness to this illness.

Additionally, doctors, nurses and healthcare professionals across the world who
have struggled to fulfill their demanding roles due to Long COVID, have called
for formal guidelines to diagnose Long COVID.


Medical research experts from the University of Toronto, Harvard Medical School,
and Emory University School of Medicine recently published a paper in the
prestigious science journal ‘The Lancet’ that stated “Long COVID has exposed
medicine’s blind-spot”. This view is reflected in the confusion, anxiety and
stress experienced by patients and healthcare professionals alike who currently
have few options on how to treat Long COVID.


Currently, there are 5 different ways to name Long COVID:

 * Long COVID (UK popular term)
 * Long Haul COVID (US popular term)
 * Post COVID Syndrome (US Functional medicine term)
 * PASC (post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2) (US NIH term)
 * Post-acute COVID-19 Syndrome (WHO term)

HOW LONG DO LONG COVID SYMPTOMS LAST?

The road to recovery from Long COVID is not always easy. For some, it can take
weeks and for others it can take months. So far there are no precise rules to
how long the symptoms last for, with a large variance observed. Long COVID does
appear to be a persistent condition for many.

Often people with Long COVID find that they seem to make an initial recovery,
with lessening of symptoms, but then later (weeks or months later) begin to
experience a relapse or flare up of symptoms, and this can cause some distress.

Factors that influence the presentation of symptoms include: severity of initial
infection, age, sex, underlying conditions, genetics and environment.

Factors that can shorten the time to recovery include (1) lifestyle changes &
medication (2) nutritional supplementation (3) one to one healthcare
consultations. 




OUR MISSION

Our mission is to help you recover from Long COVID.
