Long Covid Syndrome, also known as post-acute sequelae of SARS-Cov-2 infection (PASC) refers to a range of persistent symptoms that continue weeks or even months after the initial COVID-19 infection. It can affect anyone, regardless of the severity of the original illness and may impact multiple systems in the body, making everyday activities challenging and affecting overall quality of life.

​

How long COVID affects the Body

Long COVID can impact several systems, including:

​

IMMUNE SYSTEM - Chronic inflammation or immune dysregulation may contribute to ongoing symptoms.

CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM - Heart rhythm changes, palpitations and blood flow issues can occur.

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM - Persistent cough, shortness of breath, or reduced lung function are common.

NEUROLOGICAL SYSTEM - Cognitive difficulties, memory issues and headaches are frequently reported.

DIGESTIVE SYSTEM - Gut inflammation, nausea and appetite changes can occur, affecting nutrient absorption.
