Long COVID-19 in Spain: A Phenomenological Exploration of Health, Support, and Systemic Challenges.

Paper C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study interviewed 36 people in Spain who live with long COVID, across 17 provinces over 10 months. It is a listening study: it reports what people said about their health, the support they got, and where the health system failed them. It describes experience, so it shows patterns in what people report, not cause and effect. It does not deal with kidney disease.
