English term

long-hauler

COVID-19 GBK English to Arabic Medical Medical (general)
Definition from Fritinancy Word of the Week:
Although the World Health Organization reports that 80 percent of COVID infections are “mild or asymptomatic,” and most patients recover after one or two weeks, thousands of people now say they’ve been coping with serious symptoms for a month or longer. In online support groups, these people call themselves “long-haulers.”
Example sentences:
Even though the world is consumed by concern over COVID-19, the long-haulers have been largely left out of the narrative and excluded from the figures that define the pandemic. I can pull up an online dashboard that reveals the numbers of confirmed cases, hospitalizations, deaths, and recoveries—but LeClerc falls into none of those categories. She and others are trapped in a statistical limbo, uncounted and thus overlooked. (The Atlantic)
Coronavirus 'long haulers' are sick for months. This doctor is one of them (Today)
Dr Jake Suett, an intensive-care doctor in Norfolk, who was himself ill for several weeks, wrote an open letter calling on the government to push for more research into long-haul symptoms, and also to raise awareness among not only health professionals but also employers, who may see their staff off work for longer than two weeks.

أصحاب الرحلة الطويلة

Definition from bbc:
إعياء شديد، غثيان، ضيق بالصدر، نوبات صداع حاد، تشوش، والآم بالمفاصل، جميعها أعراض تحدث بعض المصابين بكوفيد-19 على مدى أسابيع، وربما أشهر بعد تشخيص إصابتهم.<br /><br />يُسمي هؤلاء أنفسهم &quot;أصحاب الرحلة الطويلة&quot; إذ تستمر معاناتهم مع أعراض المرض لفترات تتجاوز مدة ال 14 يوماً التي يُقال إنها مدة استمراره في المتوسط.
Example sentences:
