For most individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2, the acute illness resolves completely. However, for millions of people, symptoms or sequelae from COVID-19 recur persist months to years after infection. Post-COVID-19 are wide-ranging, often affecting musculoskeletal, pulmonary, and cardiovascular systems. All who experience post-COVID-19 face significant challenges navigating home work life. Occupations such as firefighting, however, particular concern given strenuous nature a job that relies on healthy system. Research has documented musculoskeletal impairment (including muscle weakness, pain, fatigue), respiratory dysfunction reduced lung function, interstitial disease, diffusion abnormalities), conditions cardiac events, ischemic dysrhythmias, infectious diseases), diminished cardiorespiratory fitness continues in some individuals. These persistent may affect firefighter's ability return work, function at full capacity while potentially compromise firefighter health public safety. This review, therefore, explores impact these occupational readiness.

Long COVID, as currently defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) and other authorities, is a symptomatic condition that has been shown to affect an estimated 10 %-30 % of non-hospitalized patients after one infection. However, COVID-19 can also cause organ damage in individuals without symptoms, who would not fall under current definition COVID. This damage, whether or not, lead various health impacts such heart attacks strokes. Given these observations, it necessary either expand COVID include recognize COVID-19-induced distinct affecting many asymptomatic infections. It important consider known adverse outcomes, including conditions cancers, be until harm thresholds are reached. Many more medical identified testing than those recognized through reported symptoms. therefore similarly while symptoms associated with there have displaying this characterization monitoring

In the wake of COVID-19 pandemic, millions worldwide are still struggling with persistent or recurring symptoms known as long COVID. Fatigue is one most prevalent associated COVID, and for many it can be debilitating. Understanding potential pathological processes that link fatigue to COVID critical better guide treatment. Challenges diagnosis treatment reviewed, recognizing post-COVID does not always present corroborating clinical evidence, a situation frustrating both patients healthcare providers. Firefighters group public safety workers who particularly impacted by COVID-related fatigue. must able engage in strenuous physical activity deal demanding psychological situations, which may difficult those suffering from Disruption worker health potentially impact community welfare. This review creates framework explain clinical-pathological features resulting addresses challenges, explores unique pose their organizations.
