Who develops long COVID? Longitudinal pre-pandemic predictors of long COVID and symptom clusters in a representative Dutch population

Even though most people infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (i.e., SARS-CoV-2), resulting in Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) fully recover [1,2], a considerable number of patients continues to experience prolonged symptoms, such as fatigue, neurocognitive problems, and smell and taste impairment [2]. This syndrome of lingering symptoms following COVID-19 is referred to as long COVID or post-COVID syndrome.
