COVID “long-haulers” get recognized by Idaho Department of Health and Welfare
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (KIFI) - The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare has a new section on its website dedicated to COVID long-haulers.
What determines a person as a long-hauler or long COVID hasn t been decided by health care providers or researchers, but one study used the definition of long COVID as symptoms lasting more than six weeks.
One such long hauler is Travis Smith, a Rigby man who had COVID-19 in July and ended up reading a news story online. About a month after I was still showing symptoms and was still sick, I found a news article, Smith said.
