Description
For all eligible persons (ELIGRD) in Rounds 1, 3, and 5 who are not deceased (PSTATSRD), CVDEVERRD indicates if they have ever been diagnosed with COVID-19. People who answered 'yes' to CVDEVERRD were then asked further questions about the timing of their last COVID infection and whether they experienced symptoms of Long COVID.
