Long Road Home: 'Recovered' COVID-19 Victims Report Lingering, Troublesome Symptoms

For much of Europe, the peak of the novel coronavirus COVID-19 infections has passed.

But according to CNN, there are still thousands of people who had either confirmed or suspected cases of the novel coronavirus COVID-19.

Weeks or months later, many say they are far from fully recovered.

And while data is incomplete, slow recovery seems to be hitting younger people the hardest.

Research indicates that COVID-19 is a multi-system disease that can damage the lungs, kidneys, liver, heart, brain and nervous system, skin, and GI tract.

Muscle weakness, memory problems, crashing fatigue and shortness of breath are the most common symptoms that linger following infection.

You almost get the impression that the younger, fitter individuals seem to be a bit more susceptible to long-term effects.
