People who have had COVID-19 may continue to have symptoms or develop new symptoms months after being infected with SARS-CoV-2 (1). This can lead to long-term health and economic impacts on those affected and on society (2). This report uses data from the 2022 National Health Interview Survey to describe the percentage of adults who ever had or had Long COVID at the time of interview (currently have Long COVID) by sociodemographic and geographic characteristics. Long COVID was defined as self-reporting the presence of symptoms for at least 3 months after having COVID-19 among those who reported either a positive test or a doctor's diagnosis of COVID-19.
