Long coronavirus: 2 COVID symptoms that could last for nine months or more

 Even when COVID-19 cases have declined and most patients are reporting mild symptoms, the possibility of long COVID is still high. Since studies have shown that even a mild SARS-CoV-2 infection can cause long COVID, experts have warned against undermining mild symptoms and urged people to take necessary measures.

For those of you, who are still unaware of the term long COVID, it is a condition that occurs in people who have had a COVID-19 infection and continue to experience lingering symptoms long after their recovery.

Up until now, several long term symptoms have come to the fore. However, research is still ongoing and scientists continue to work towards identifying new and unusual symptoms associated with the condition, so as to develop targeted treatments.


A recent study published in the Journal of Infection worked towards establishing 'residual symptoms' of COVID-19 that could last for several months after infection.

The study involved 465 symptomatic COVID patients (54% males, 51% hospitalised) aged over 18 years. The group of participants had tested positive for COVID-19 at Verona University Hospital, Italy, during the period February 29 to May 2, 2020.

The researchers found that 37% of the participants displayed at least four symptoms and 42% reported symptoms lasting for more than 28 days. In addition, 20% of the patients were still asymptomatic at month nine with two classic COVID symptoms. Read on to find out what they are.
