RECOVER
Our understanding of Long COVID is constantly evolving with new research findings. Stay informed by reading the latest news and participating in upcoming events.
Results from a recent RECOVER study suggest that adults who have COVID-19 may be more likely to develop a related condition called myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS).
NIH leaders will provide updates and answer questions about RECOVER’s latest efforts to identify safe and effective treatments for Long COVID.
During the December 10th RECOVER Research Review (R3) Seminar, researchers described a recent pathobiology study investigating viral persistence, or when SARS-CoV-2 remains in a person’s body and continues to cause changes even after they recover from their initial sickness. The study’s findings suggest that viral persistence could be one reason why some people experience certain symptoms of Long COVID.
Data provided by more than 3,800 new study participants reinforce how the long-term effects of COVID-19 can be different for everyone.
In 2024, RECOVER continued to advance scientific understanding of Long COVID through observational studies, clinical trials, and community engagement.
Using a large and diverse collection of tissue samples, experts in how diseases affect different parts of the body will explore the underlying causes of Long COVID.
Editorial by NIH leaders shares how RECOVER has worked and will continue working to ease the suffering of those living with Long COVID.
The $662 million in funds received in 2024 will ensure that researchers can continue making progress toward understanding, diagnosing, preventing, and treating Long COVID through 2029.
During the November 12th RECOVER Research Review (R3) Seminar, researchers described how they are studying people’s health and habits both before and during the pandemic to answer important questions about COVID-19 and its long-term effects. Specifically, two studies using data collected by the Collaborative Cohort of Cohorts for COVID-19 Research (C4R) have identified several different factors that could impact the protective effects of COVID-19 vaccines.
