An Australian study investigating the long-term impacts of COVID-19 found nearly three-quarters of the participants had lingering symptoms months after their recovery.
Ms Stehn was one of 59 Australians surveyed for the study, which found 73 per cent of participants were symptomatic four-and-a-half months after their diagnoses.
A recent study by Monash University that looked at COVID-19 patients who had been in intensive care, similarly found that more than 70 per cent of respondents reported suffering persistent symptoms six months after they were hospitalised with COVID-19.
Co-investigator Lyndel Hewitt said the ongoing study is now looking to recruit people who have contracted the Delta variant.
"The preliminary results of the study being released now have been looking at the Alpha and Wuhan strain of the virus," Ms Hewitt said
