The study found the odds of females developing long COVID is 22% higher than males. Women with long COVID showed a variety of symptoms including respiratory issues of the ear, nose and throat, mood and neurological disorders, skin rashes, musculoskeletal pain and fatigue, as well as gastrointestinal and rheumatic disorders.
