In this Episode:

  • A substantial proportion of those who have had COVID-19, experience health issues many weeks and months after the acute infection
  • As part of the clinical approach, ask about level of energy and general function, “brain fog”…mental clarity and general pain
  • Mental health, shortness of breath are important issues to monitor for
  • It will be a multidisciplinary challenge and specialist opinion will often be needed, but GPs will be central players in this process

    • Host: Dr David Lim, GP
