We are doing this study to understand how COVID affects the body, and why some people who got COVID are still sick many months after infection. This condition is called "Long COVID" or "PASC," which stands for Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2. If you had COVID-19 while you were pregnant, you may be able to take part.
This study will last up to four years. Participation involves doing a questionnaire every 3 months and coming for an in-person visit up to three times in the first year. After the first year, there will be one study visit per year. At the first study visit, we will ask you some questions about you and your medical history. You will have a brief medical exam and we will also collect samples of your blood, saliva, stool, nasal swab and urine. We will also ask you to complete some laboratory tests. Based on the results of the questionnaire and the tests, we may ask you to complete more tests.
