According to the results of a study conducted by researchers from University College London (UCL) and the University of Exeter, the long-term impact of corona on patients' daily activities is worse than the impact of a sudden stroke. Stroke can be compared to Parkinson's disease.

Previous research has shown that up to 17% of people infected with the coronavirus develop long-term illness.

A new study also showed that fatigue is a symptom that affects the daily life of patients with long-term coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

Researchers found that people who had COVID-19 for a long time were severely ill and had stress levels as great or lower as people with anemia related to cancer or severe kidney disease.

He said, from the University of Exeter Medical School: "It is surprising that our study shows that long-acting coronaviruses can make people feel irritable and tired. They have a poorer quality of life compared to people with cancer."

Researchers studied more than 3,750 patients who were referred to hospital for long-term treatment for COVID-19 after showing symptoms for at least 12 weeks after infection.

Patients completed a survey on an app about how they have been affected by Covid. Details included impact on their daily activities, fatigue, anxiety, depression, shortness of breath, mental fog, and quality of life.

The researchers found that 51% of patients said they had been unable to work for at least one day in the previous month, and 20% of them had not been able to work at all, said Dr. Henry Goodfellow, an epidemiologist and health researcher who led the study.
