Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection
Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection, commonly known as PASC, refers to a range of symptoms that persist for weeks or months after the initial recovery from COVID-19. These symptoms can affect various systems in the body, including respiratory, cardiovascular, and neurological functions, leading to ongoing health challenges for some individuals.
Research indicates that individuals who have had COVID-19 may experience fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and shortness of breath, among other issues. The exact causes of PASC are still being studied, but it highlights the importance of monitoring long-term health effects following a SARS-CoV-2 infection.
