We determined burdens, incidence, evolution, associated factors of long COVID-19 over two years among these groups. conducted a longitudinal cohort study in Dhaka, Bangladesh, recruited confirmed from December 2020 to May 2021 (previously reported). 346 underwent in-person follow-ups at five, nine, 18 months post-infection.
