'Long Covid' / 'Covid Long-haulers'

I think this is worth a separate thread. The Guardian article below gives figures of cases of 'Long Covid' as follows:

Tim Spector, a professor of genetic epidemiology at King’s College London who runs the app-based Covid symptom study, said around 300,000 people had reported symptoms lasting for more than a month.

A minority have been suffering for longer; up to 60,000 people have reported having symptoms for more than three months.

It affects younger people:
