What happens to the body of a person who suffers from the long-term effects of the coronavirus?
As a 33-year-old reporter for Kyodo News, my ailments related to COVID-19 continue to this day, more than a year after I recovered from the initial viral infection. Although I have seen slight improvements through treatment, I am still far from my former self.
In January, after an examination at the National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry in Tokyo, I was told I might be suffering from an immune disorder and reduced brain function due to the virus.
