The most common symptoms included breathing problems, fatigue, pain and anxiety, Oxford University said, after investigating symptoms in over 270,000 people recovering from COVID-19.
The symptoms were more frequent among people who had been previously hospitalised with COVID-19 and were slightly more common among women, according to the study.
