PARIS: Not even one in three people have completely recovered from COVID-19 a full year after being hospitalised with the disease, a United Kingdom study indicated on Sunday , warning that long COVID could become a common condition.
It also found that obese people were half as likely to fully recover, while those who needed mechanical ventilation were 58 per cent less likely. Just 26 per cent reported a full recovery after five months, and that number rose only slightly to 28.9 per cent after a year, according to the study published in the Lancet Respiratory Medicine journal.
The most common long COVID symptoms were fatigue, muscle pain, poor sleep, slowing down physically and breathlessness.
