最近很多人都处在后COVID的康复期,有各种不同的表现,觉得哪儿哪儿都不舒服。我公司元旦过后至今办公室都一直空荡荡的,到处都感到病歪歪的,偶尔来几个同事也是一脸倦容加愁容。不能问,一问都是一肚子苦水,家里老人都不省心。
这些症状有三种最常见的说法:
post-Covid conditions (PCC)
long Covid
aftermath after COVID-19
WHO官网上说10%-20%感染过COVID的人会持续各种不适症状相当长一段时间,所以又叫做 long Covid.
从词汇角度而言,我最喜欢第一种说法:post-Covid conditions.
后遗症的正式英文是 sequela,读音是 /sɪˈkwiːlə/ 或 /sɪˈkwɛlə/,意思是: A
disease or condition which follows chronologically after an earlier
disease or problem, being either wholly or partly caused by it, or made
possible by it. (Wiktionary)
但很少有人说这个词,说到中招康复后的不舒服就是上面那三种说法。
我从不相信中国各路专家/砖家的话,但这次我却希望他们说的是真的——"Covid没有后遗症"。我希望他们这辈子至少说一次真话,干一回人事儿。
根据美国CDC官网的统计,以下这些症状最普遍,你可以对照一下自己的情况:
