Women, smokers and those with severe infection most likely to get Long Covid

A systematic review and meta analysis of over 800,000 patients most likely to get Long Covid has found women, smokers and those who had severe COVID-19 infection are at a higher risk of Long COVID. 

Researchers also found that patients who had at least two doses of the COVID vaccine had a significantly lower risk of getting Long COVID.
