Abstract:

COVID-19 is a complex and enduring issue that impacts individuals globally. Persistent symptoms characterize it following an acute SARS-CoV-2 infection. This illness results in fatigue, cognitive impairment, and respiratory challenges, impacting everyday functioning and straining healthcare systems. Long COVID exacerbates economic instability, shame, and prejudice beyond its physical consequences. Long COVID individuals experience varying degrees of symptom severity and duration, which have an impact on their personal, professional, and social lives. Providing support for maintaining personal well-being is challenging for caregivers and families. The lack of consistency in symptoms and misunderstandings in society negatively impact productivity and stability in the workplace. To address these problems, it is necessary to provide comprehensive Healthcare, inclusive legislation, and public education to foster empathy and support. This book presents comprehensive methods to mitigate the impact of Long COVID on individuals and society.
