In recent days, there has been a lot of media attention for the major summer revival of Corona since 2021. According to the latest measurements by the RIVM, the amount of virus particles in the sewage water has never been so high at this time of year since then. This new outbreak of the COVID virus, the FLiRT variant, is causing concern among people with post-COVID. After all, a new infection can cause a relapse in recovery or worsen their current complaints.
Post-COVID can also occur with mild variants of the virus
Despite the fact that the current variant is a mild version of the Corona virus, there is still a chance of developing post-COVID. In practice, C-support has not yet been able to conclude that developing post-COVID symptoms depends on the severity of the COVID infection. You can even get post-COVID after an infection with mild symptoms.
Therefore, try to prevent infection with Corona by advice for preventing respiratory infections to follow up. And test yourself if you get symptoms and avoid contact with others in case of symptoms and/or a positive test so that you can also protect the environment.
The extent to which the current variant causes post-COVID will only become clear in the fall. We are talking about post-COVID when complaints still occur (or reoccur) three months after recovering from the COVID infection.
