#CountlongCovid 10%? 20%? 30%? [THREAD]
To better understand #LongCovid prevalence, I made a figure based on 27 articles with 9 preprints (thanks @ahandvanish)
% are not comparable as
- population differ (%hospitalized)
- symptoms measured at different time
- Biais & sample https://twitter.com/Barbusceptique/status/1322896496006750210

2 - If we look at mostly non hospitalized patients with PCR+:

#LongCovid prevalence vary btw 35 - 44% after 1 month and 24% after 3 months

3 - We need standardized study in the general population to efficiently measure #LongCovid in both patients with PCR+ and -, variety of symptoms, non hospitalized, AND with a follow-up.
