Incidence of long COVID among U.S. children and adults during the omicron era – Tracking Post-COVID Conditions (Track-PCC) network, 2022–2023
These data suggest the PCC incidence following acute COVID-19 has not increased during the Omicron period. This is useful for understanding the burden of PCC and estimating demand of medical services following acute COVID-19 infections. PCC surveillance, including tracking the incidence of PCC, understanding patients at higher likelihood of developing PCC, and creating robust estimates, is critical to public health efforts to understand disease burden and guide prevention and treatment efforts.
