Long covid is still common: “Most common symptoms are fatigue and difficulty concentrating” – Listen Select

Now that hospitals also want to get rid of face masks, the corona crisis seems to be behind us. Except for those suffering from lung covid.

“The symptoms can be very wide,” says Sabeth De Waele (UZ Brussel). “There are more than 200 of them, but the most common are fatigue and cognitive problems, such as concentration problems. Poor recovery after exercise is also very typical.”

Who gets lung covid? De Waele speaks of a genetic predisposition. But the investigation is still ongoing. “Doomsday thinking that this is for life, I would also refrain from.”
