      DescriptionStudy author Aranka Ballering of the Dutch University of Groningen called long COVID “an urgent problem with a mounting human toll.”

      "By looking at symptoms in an uninfected control group and in individuals both before and after SARS-CoV-2 infection, we were able to account for symptoms which may have been a result of non-infectious disease health aspects of the pandemic, such as stress caused by restrictions and uncertainty," Ballering added.
