First-of-a-kind Long Haul Covid Study w/ Rachel Jaros: 28 June, 2023

Long COVID or long-haul COVID is a series of conditions characterised by long-term, multi-system, often severe health problems persisting or appearing after the typical recovery period of COVID-19. However there is little consensus on the definition of the term as of earlier this year. A new study by the Liggins Institute, headed by Rachel Jaros, sheds new light on the long-term health implications Covid can have, including heart disease and Parkinson’s. 

Arno started our interview by asking what clarifications the study focused on and to see what new research uncovered about Long Covid and its health effects.
