The US Centers for Disease Control said coronavirus symptoms can linger for weeks, even in healthy people who don’t have a severe case of the virus.

The CDC recently surveyed 292 people who tested positive, with 35-percent stating they were not back to their usual good health even two or three weeks after testing positive, according to a CNN report.

Older adults were most affected with prolonged symptoms, but young adults with underlying conditions also reported issues with recovery for a longer period.
