We’re living through unfamiliar times right now and the coronavirus outbreak has changed how we live day to day.

If you feel confused, stressed or anxious at some point, you’re not alone.

Long Covid

While most people recover quickly from coronavirus (COVID-19), some people may have ongoing symptoms. These can last for a few weeks or longer. This has been referred to as long COVID.

These symptoms are not limited to people who were seriously unwell or hospitalised with coronavirus.

You can find more information about Long Covid and support if you have ongoing symptoms of coronavirus on the NHS Inform website - https://www.nhsinform.scot/long-covid
