<p>The National Health Service and the wider scientific community are currently working
to better understand the disease course of COVID-19 infection, including the prevalence,
severity and duration of symptoms, and how best to support recovery. The National
Institute for Health Research and UK Research and Innovation have invested £8.4 million
in the Post-HOSPitalisation COVID-19 study (PHOSP-COVID), led by Christopher Brightling
at the University of Leicester.</p><p>The NHS is working to expand access to COVID-19
rehabilitation treatments for those who have survived the virus but still have problems
with breathing, mental health problems or other longer-term complications. As part
of this, in July the NHS launched the ‘Your COVID Recovery’ service, a personalised
programme to support the recovery of people who have been in hospital or suffered
at home with the virus. The research currently underway will continue to inform future
NHS service design and provision.</p>
