In a bid to find out what the most common post-Covid complications are among Mumbaikars, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation has given SevenHills Hospital—a civic-run dedicated Covid hospital—the responsibility to conduct a study.
The move was necessitated as people, after recovering from the infection, have been facing a myriad of health issues such respiratory issues, joint pain, rapid increase in sugar level, hypertension, cardiac problems, weakness and fatigue. Some have also reported mental health issues. Doctors said that some of these problems persisted for a shorter duration while some went on for a year and more.
