Long COVID clinical evaluation, research and impact on society: a global expert consensus
Stefano Pallanti is a member of the Long COVID consensus expert panel which was convened by the World Health Network Long COVID Expert Advisory Group, Cambridge, USA, as indicated by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) | (.gov).
This panel is a group of experts, including physicians, researchers, and people with lived experience, who came together to develop recommendations and consensus statements on Long COVID.
Long COVID is a complex, heterogeneous syndrome affecting over four hundred million people globally. There are few recommendations, and no formal training exists for medical professionals to assist with clinical evaluation and management of patients with Long COVID. More research into the pathology, cellular, and molecular mechanisms of Long COVID, and treatments is needed. The goal of this work is to disseminate essential information about Long COVID and recommendations about definition, diagnosis, treatment, research and social issues to physicians, researchers, and policy makers to address this escalating global health crisis.
