Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by an infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has had a substantial impact on the health and well-being of Canadians. In addition to symptoms experienced during the acute phase of infection, some people continue to experience persistent, recurring, or new symptoms. These longer-term, wide-ranging symptoms, which can negatively impact daily activities, work and school, are commonly known as “post COVID-19 condition” (PCC) or “long COVID” when not resolved within three months of infection.
