As we continue to navigate through the impact of COVID-19, there is a growing awareness of the long-lasting effects that the virus can have on individuals, particularly the elderly and those with neurological conditions. These effects, known as Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID-19 infection (PASC), can manifest in a variety of ways, ranging from persistent fatigue and cognitive decline to respiratory issues and neurological symptoms. Just like a boomerang that keeps coming back, PASC lingers on even after the initial infection has resolved. Scientists are still uncovering the exact mechanisms behind PASC and how it affects different organ systems. However, one thing is clear – the implications for geriatric and neurological care are significant. This newfound understanding calls for healthcare providers to adapt their approaches and provide comprehensive care for patients affected by PASC. Exploring the underlying research can shed more light on this emerging field and pave the way for improved care strategies.
