About This Study
Adults of all ages, races, and ethnicities from across the U.S. have joined RECOVER to find answers to questions about Long COVID, including:
- Why do some people get Long COVID and others don’t?
- What symptoms do people feel when they get Long COVID and how long do they feel sick?

View Our Research Results!
RECOVER has learned a lot about how Long COVID looks in adults. RECOVER published an important paper on the common symptoms some adults with Long COVID may feel. Since then, we've published an update to that research, plus even more papers on what we've found in this cohort. This is just the start, and your help is leading to more discoveries in the future.
