FAQs

Recovery from long covid depends on your age, fitness and your symptoms.

Some people who’ve had the illness can experience symptoms of fatigue and headache, or have trouble breathing for 12 weeks or more.

If you were hospitalised with covid, you may find you have muscle weakness, fatigue, shortness of breath and brain fog, even 6 months after infection.
