Some patients who have been declared cured are also known to experience a number of symptoms that persist in the body. Some of the reported symptoms include: fibrosis paru, to a constant feeling of fatigue.
In addition, several clinical studies have shown that there are certain symptoms of COVID-19, which can take a long time to disappear. Anything? The following is a summary as quoted from the page Times of India.
1. Shortness of breath and difficulty breathing
For patients who do experience respiratory complications related to COVID-19, having difficulty breathing is a common complaint. However, in many cases, it can also be a symptom that persists after being declared cured. These symptoms also often make the body dependent on external support machines.
Complaints may be common among patients who have a high rate of lung involvement due to the Delta variant, regardless of age.
