In the study, published in the journal (Nature Communications), the researchers stated that most of them consisted of a sub-group of 197 recovering from infection with the virus.SARS-CoV-2), an infection that was accompanied by disease symptoms, and they completed surveys in the 12th and 18th months, saying that symptoms of the consequences of the disease remained following these two periods of infection.
And the non-recovery rates up to 12 months recorded 11 percent, while the partial recovery reached 51 percent and the full recovery reached 39 percent. The rates were exactly the same up to 18 months.
Those who were infected without symptoms had no symptoms Long-term health effectsBut half of those who were infected and showed symptoms of the disease, and their total number in the study was 31,486, said that a period ranging between 6 months and a year and a half passed without feeling that they had fully recovered.
The researchers reported that one in 20 patients with symptomatic infection said in the latest follow-up that his recovery was not complete yet.
Jill Bell, who led the study from the University of Glasgow, said in a statement: "Our study is important because it adds to our understanding of long-term (symptoms associated with) COVID-19 in the general population, not just in people who required hospitalization for COVID-19.".
The likelihood of developing residual symptoms associated with Covid-19 for a long time was greater among those who were hospitalized, the elderly, females, those with difficult socio-economic conditions, and those with pre-existing health problems. The most common chronic symptoms include shortness of breath, chest pain, palpitations, confusion, and"brain fog".
The researchers also concluded that vaccination before infection appears to protect once morest some of the long-term symptoms.
The researchers also included in their results a survey of nearly 63,000 individuals who tested positive for Covid-19, to distinguish between health problems caused by the virus. corona And the expected health problems among the general public.

The results are derived from a large study of 33,281 people in Scotland who tested positive for the virus. coronaMost of the results are consistent with those from previous, smaller studies.
