A National Institutes Health study published Thursday of American adults found that one in 10 people are getting long COVID after suffering an omicron infection.
It spotlights a dozen symptoms that distinguish the long-term effects. Long COVID is broadly defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as signs, symptoms and conditions that continue or develop after initial COVID-19 infection. It is also sometimes referred to as long-haul COVID, post-acute COVID-19, chronic COVID, Post-COVID conditions and long-term effects of COVID.

The study compared more than 8,600 adults who had COVID-19 at different points in the pandemic with another 1,100 who had not been infected.
