Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Reports suggest that over 100m people around the world are living with Long COVID (more than 1.5m in the UK) yet reliable, clear information and guidance remains scarce. This book is the definitive guide to understanding, managing and treating the condition.

Written by the world's leading immunologist Professor Danny Altmann and expert patient Gez Medinger, The Long COVID Handbook translates cutting-edge science, patient-led research and practical guidance with clarity. This book will equip you with expert information and advice on:

  • Long COVID's 200 symptoms, which include fatigue, brain fog, breathlessness and more
  • Tips for recovery
  • Which treatments are most effective and why
  • Who is most susceptible to the condition and why
  • What we can learn about Long COVID from other chronic illnesses
  • The impact on mental health

This is the essential guide for anyone living with the condition, as well as clinicians seeking to better understand this little-understood illness.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Excellent resource for all Long Covid sufferers.

Gez Medinger has been tirelessly helping to peel the many layers of Long Covid from the very beginning of the pandemic. As someone who got infected in March 2020, I find this resource absolutely indispensable in understanding and managing Long Covid.

Long awaited book did not disappoint

Gez, a long hauler himself, combined a huge amount of material into this book. This handbook can be a very useful tool to get a snapshot of relevant research and existing treatment options.

Excellent From a 2+ Year Long Hauler

I have had long covid over two years with MCAS and Pots Syndrome and this is an excellent resource for those who want to understand Long Covid as best we can. I learned great tips on how to manage the disease as well as future treatments (I am in the Paxlovid one currently) I highly recommend this book. I have Long Covid so for me the audio version was better due to my symptoms.
