Abstract

The picture painted by participants was bleak with a sense that the world had moved on from Covid-19 and left them behind, with some experiencing a lack of support in primary health care. Reducing the likely long-term health and economic burden of long Covid requires targeted investment and action by Government at every level, along with better utilisation of the allied health workforce in primary care.
