Nearly one-third of CoVid sufferers continue to report aches and pains for as long as 9 months.  This the finding of University of Washington researchers after studying 177 persons 85% of whom had only a mild CoVid case.

 

Checking in an average of 6 months after infection, the most common complaints were fatigue, loss of smell and taste, brain fog, trouble breathing, muscle aches, cough, and sore throat.   Persistent symptoms became more prevalent in the older age groups: 27% of those 18 to 39 years had them versus 43% of those 65 years and older.

 

CoVid all too often becomes a chronic part of your life.  Mask, distance, and wash.
