Researchers found people may experience long-term symptoms – or long colds – after respiratory infections that test negative for Covid.
Poorly people can struggle with symptoms of colds, flu and pneumonia, as well as Covid, for up to four weeks, researchers at Queen Mary University of London found.
The longest time from initial infection to reports of ongoing symptoms was 37 weeks for non-Covid infections and 64 weeks for Covid-19.The results showed that 22% of people with Covid-19 suffered prolonged symptoms after infection, this was the same who did not have it, Professor Adrian Martineau, from Queen Mary University of London said.
“As research into long Covid continues, we need to take the opportunity to investigate and consider the lasting effects of other acute respiratory infections.“These ‘long’ infections are so difficult to diagnose and treat primarily because of a lack of diagnostic tests and there being so many possible symptoms.The study looked at people’s symptoms after their initial infection, using questionnaires.
