Abstract

The covid-19 pandemic has killed over 1.6 million people worldwide, 1 caused the worst healthcare crisis of this century, and put a huge dent in our economies. The magnitude of the population still struggling with symptoms four weeks after their acute illness-commonly called "long covid"-is becoming obvious and demands urgent prioritisation to prevent a further blow to health systems and the healthcare workforce.
