Chronic COVID-19 can manifest in many ways, but the most common symptom is chronic fatigue. Extreme fatigue that goes beyond simple weakness. Dr. Cohen describes it as profound exhaustion... even after a good night's sleep .
In addition, there is dizziness, persistent disorientation, memory or language problems... Every task becomes a challenge.
According to a Yale University study, about half of people with long COVID-19 also meet the criteria for chronic fatigue syndrome, a poorly studied and often underestimated illness.
Consequences on social and professional life
Long COVID doesn't just affect health. It also impacts careers, social relationships, and emotional well-being. Dr. Cohen, like one in ten people infected in the United States, has had to drastically reduce his professional activities.
Many patients face lost income, medical bills, and isolation. Some have to choose between paying rent and going to the doctor.
At the same time, scientific research is stagnating, hampered by growing public disinterest and dwindling financial resources.
