The COVID-19 pandemic has affected millions of people not physically, and mentally, but also in their day-to-day life. It has also affected the global economy and led to a dramatic loss of human life worldwide. The virus has spread so fast that it destroys the body’s immune system causing different symptoms most especially to those who are already suffering from comorbidities.
Fortunately, after a year of living with the fear of getting infected, the vaccines were created and have been disseminated globally to prevent infections and counter severe COVID-19 cases. However, some who were infected by the virus continue to experience persistent symptoms of COVID-19 infection.
In this episode, the co-director of Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome (PACS) clinic at Stanford Healthcare medical center, Dr. Linda Geng, joins us to share what POST-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome is and what its long-haulers deal with. This episode features discussions on the predictors of the syndrome and how to prevent and treat Long COVID.
