I understand that it wouldn't be completely linear but a jump from 25% after 60 days to 49% after 120 doesn't seem completely right?

I must have met the luckiest sample in the world then. Will be interesting to see if 50% of other posters and their friends/families have had long COVID.

I know one person I work with who’s suffering quite badly with long covid symptoms such as persistent chesty cough and shortness of breath. He’s late 50’s, fully jabbed/boosted and obese.

Find it weird that it feels its gone away, as in zippo restrictions, but it actually hasnt. I still wear a mask in the shop, but thats as much habit as anything, which plenty still do.

Are football players still tested every few days?

Just before anyone gets carried away that it's all over or just like the flu.

Nearly half of people infected with COVID-19 experienced some 'long COVID' symptoms
