Study finds path to understand and address the root causes of long COVID, researchers say

Since it was first recognized early in the pandemic, long COVID has stirred debate in some circles about whether it might be driven largely by psychological factors. But “every day we’re compiling evidence that this is in fact a biological condition and a complex chronic illness, not a psychosomatic one,” Putrino said.
