Long Covid, a term to describe lasting long-term effects of Covid-19.
Covid-19 was first reported to World Health Organisation (WHO) China Country Office 31 December 2019.
Most people recover from Covid-19 after 2 to 6 weeks. As the name suggests, Long Covid, is so named because some symptoms may take much longer to linger.
Could Long Covid be M.E.?
M.E. Symptoms can include, all or several of the following:
In many cases, onset is linked to a viral infection. Other triggers may include an operation or an accident, child birth, bereavement, breakdown of a relationship, anything that your body determines as a trauma. Some people experience a slow, insidious onset, which means the onset can be days, weeks, months even years later which can then prove diagnosis difficult.
