A new study by Cardiff University in collaboration with the University of Hertfordshire has revealed the huge secondary burden placed on those closest to people living with Long Covid.
The researchers surveyed more than 700 Covid-19 survivors along with their partners and close relatives to understand for the first time the impact of the disease on families as a whole.
The findings, published today in
BMJ Open, suggest family quality of life is being severely affected and a major system of support is needed for both survivors - and those closest to them.
Survivors and their families spoke of the huge impact on their lives and backed calls for more support.

A team from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Cardiff University say they have found the strongest evidence yet of a migration gene in birds.
The team identified a single gene associated with migration in peregrine falcons by tracking them via satellite technology and combining this with genome sequencing.
They say their findings add further evidence to suggest genetics has a strong role to play in the distance of migration routes.
The study, published today in the journal
Nature, also looks at the predicted effect of climate change on migration - and how this might interact with evolutionary factors.
