Many patients who have had Covid -19 have been left with a range of ongoing physical health complications. Around 33% of people infected also have psychological or neuropsychological concerns associated with their health. Patients are often depressed or anxious due to their new long term condition, have cognitive difficulties as a result of their illness, or trauma symptoms such as Post ICU Syndrome. These affect people of all ages and backgrounds.
