    • Abstract:
      Following the Covid-19 pandemic, a new disease has emerged: Long Covid syndrome, about which we know little and on which too little research is being done. It is a chronic disease, which is diagnosed when Covid symptoms last more than 12 weeks. To date, there is no pharmacological or other approach to Long Covid. The main symptoms of Long Covid are pain similar to those of rheumatic and autoimmune diseases, headaches, concentration and memory disorders, sometimes also perceived as brain fog and fatigue. Research and education and sensible, bipartisan social policy, away from all ideologies, are needed to address this additional aspect of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.
