Abstract

Developed with the help of patient organisations, this project will test the efficacy of existing drugs to treat long COVID, and measure the different effects of three months' treatment on patients with regards to their symptoms, mental health and other outcomes such as returning to work. It will also assess the use of MRI scans to help diagnose potential organ damage in those recovering from the coronavirus, as well as enhanced rehabilitation - the provision of joined-up specialist care centred around an app for patients allowing them to track their symptoms.
