About The Study: In this prospective cohort study of adults with SARS-CoV-2 infection, participants with current self-reported long COVID (defined as developing new, persistent symptoms lasting 3 months or longer after SARS-CoV-2 infection) reported worse work impairment, missed work, and financial distress compared with those who never had long COVID, while vaccination was associated with improved work outcomes and less financial distress even among individuals with long COVID. These data underscore the need for post-pandemic assistance programs, as well as vaccination to decrease societal harms.
