The symptoms, risk factors and typical course of mild, moderate and severe COVID-19 infections are detailed, focusing on correlations with hospitalization and death. The physical and emotional toll on healthcare workers is described, as well as the innovations and sacrifices made by physicians, nurses, and hospitals during the pandemic. Present and enduring changes in primary care and mental healthcare, including increased utilization of telemedicine, are explained. The misinformation and disinformation raging during the pandemic and their adverse effect on public health and patient recovery are uncovered. There is a focus on persistent symptoms, long after the initial COVID infection, including long-COVID syndrome. The book concludes with recommendations to best move forward, addressing public health, healthcare inequities, long-term care facilities, primary care, healthcare worker well-being, and following science and truth.
