Nearly 3 of every 10 U.S. adults who have had COVID-19 said that their symptoms lasted at least 3 months, according to a new Census Bureau report.

The report, called the Household Pulse Survey, was based on responses collected from Nov. 2-14. Nearly 36 million adults—29.1 percent—said their symptoms lasted at least a quarter of the year. In Mississippi, more than 42 percent of adults said they had extended symptoms, the most of any state, while only 22 percent of adults in Maine said the same, the lowest of any state.

Those numbers are actually down slightly from Oct. 5-17, when 29.6 percent of U.S. adults said they'd had long COVID symptoms. The same percentages were seen in September, while from July 27 to Aug. 8, the percentage of adults with long COVID symptoms was 33.2 percent. Head over to Medscape to read the full story.
