More than a million of us are believed to be living with long COVID-19 – still suffering symptoms from the illness 12 weeks or much longer still after the initial infection. Women appear to be affected more than men. Prominent symptoms are tiredness, breathlessness, brain fog, loss of taste or smell and muscle aches. Insomnia, headaches and low mood/anxiety are common too.
