ABSTRACT
Persistent COVID is defined as the persistence of COVID-19 symptoms 4 weeks
after an acute illness, according to the most recent Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention definition. It is estimated that 65 million people are affected by this entity,
although other figures speak of 200 million affected. According to global statistics,
it is estimated that 1 in 10 COVID-19 patients will develop the chronic form called
persistent COVID, and the prevalence varies from 7.5 to 14% according to the various
European and North American series. Unfortunately in Latin America there are
no reliable statistics.
