תיאור
סיכום:This article aims to illustrate the effects of the chronic illness Long Covid on health and wellbeing in Britain. It will examine the evidence on this condition and its impact on wellbeing through what has been termed “living systematic reviews”, which refer to data which is updated with relevant new evidence as it becomes available, recognising that this is both a heterogeneous condition and that the literature on Long Covid has become redundant as the disease has progressed. Since the article focuses on the impact on British people’s lives, it will also examine a collection of narratives which are available online through Long Covid health advocacy websites.
