Dr Petra Simic, Medical Director for Healthcare Management at Bupa, says:

"There is much we still need to learn about COVID-19 and Long-COVID. It is critical that we understand the impact on people’s long term physical and mental health. The focus on global research alongside dedicated multidisciplinary care in this condition is essential if we are going to understand and treat this condition effectively."
