Patterns of long COVID symptoms among healthcare workers in the UK and variations by sociodemographic, clinical and occupational factors: a cross-sectional analysis of a nationwide study (UK-REACH)
Our findings are the first to reveal distinct patterns in long COVID symptoms among HCWs with significant variations by ethnicity, sex and occupational role. These findings emphasise the need for targeted support strategies and workplace adjustments that consider both occupation-specific risks and individual sociodemographic factors.
