One in four local COVID patients still suffering symptoms months later

A quarter of Maltese who contracted coronavirus still suffered from symptoms four to five months after, a COVID-19 follow-up study has revealed. And about 22 per cent of former patients said they feel worse since they contracted the virus. The figure was described as “impressive” by consultant cardiologist Caroline Magri, who has analysed the data. While 77 per cent of the random population sample felt the same as they did pre-COVID-19, a fourth of those who felt worse suffered from fatigue months after they shed the virus. A total of 23 per cent reported having shortness of breath. A fifth had headaches and 8.9 per cent suffered from chest pain, the study highlights.
