long haulers

Long haulers are individuals who continue to experience symptoms of COVID-19 for weeks or months after the initial infection has resolved. Common symptoms include fatigue, shortness of breath, brain fog, joint pain, and chest pain. This persistent condition can occur regardless of the severity of the original illness, affecting daily life and functioning. While researchers are still studying why this happens, it is recognized as a post-viral syndrome that highlights the need for ongoing medical support and research to better understand and manage these lingering effects.
