Many patients who have recovered from COVID-19 report continued fatigue and forgetfulness, a condition being described as the COVID-19 brain fog. While some mild complications of COVID-19 after recovery, such as persistent low-grade fever, could be more perceived than real, the brain fog does affect patients, lasts longer than expected, but is temporary.

Post-COVID infections are among the most common complications, and they are being triggered by unnecessary or long-term use of steroids among COVID-19 patients.
