Covid-19 can leave many people with potentially debilitating fatigue months after they’ve recovered from the illness, research released Thursday found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The long-term lethargy was reported in patients with symptoms<\/a> from mild to severe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>While Covid-19 symptoms, including fever, muscle weakness, shortness of breath, vomiting and diarrhea, have been well publicized, Townsend said, “the medium- and long-term consequences of infection remain unexplored.”<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The research, which will be presented at a virtual meeting of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, is based on 128 former Covid-19 patients. It has not been published in a peer-reviewed journal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
