Our qualitative study of Long Covid was the largest sample (114) published to date. We showed, beyond any reasonable doubt, that this illness is NOT limited to 12 predefined tick-box symptoms. Its key characteristic is 'strangeness' and fluctuation. https://t.co/j6z1u0IYOu pic.twitter.com/C8Hyy9DSms
