LONG COVID IS A CNS / ANS DISORDER
A study from the VUB and UZ Brussel demonstrated that symptoms of increased sensitivity of the nervous system (CNS) occurs in more than 70% of patients with long-term disorders after contracting COVID-19 which leads to diffuse but serious disorders.

When unsure please use the Stress Symptoms Checklist and/or the Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale |
