Features and risk factors of post-COVID-19 syndrome: Findings from a longitudinal study in Bangladesh

(The Lancet) A comprehensive study of the post-COVID syndrome (PCS) remains scarce in low-and middle-income countries. We assessed the prevalence, incidence rate, evolution over time, and risk factors of PCS among hospitalized (HS) and non-hospitalized (NHS) COVID-19 survivors. We undertook a prospective longitudinal study of COVID-19 survivors at months 1, 3, and 5 post-discharge or post-isolation period. The study was conducted at two COVID-19-designated hospitals in Dhaka, Bangladesh, between December 2020 and October 2021.
