Abstract

Long coronavirus disease (COVID [LC]) constitutes a potential health emergency as millions of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections lead to chronic symptoms. We must understand whether vaccines reduce LC because this has major implications for health policy. We report a 79% reduction in LC referrals correlating with vaccination in the United Kingdom.
