Join Professor Brian Cox as he talks to scientists working at the forefront of research into long COVID, and campaigners with personal experience of the devastating effect it can have on lives.

If you are concerned or need advice about long COVID, please visit the NHS COVID recovery website https://www.yourcovidrecovery.nhs.uk/ With vaccination programmes underway across the globe, attention is turning to the longer-term impact of COVID-19 and in particular the condition termed 'long COVID'. Very little is known about the condition at the moment, despite some studies estimating that 1 in 20 are affected. Large-scale research projects and population studies are now looking at the reported symptoms to understand what long COVID is, why some people are affected for months, and how we can treat it.
