Our research shows that ongoing psychiatric symptoms and problematic alcohol use in Long Covid populations are a concern. Going forward the Irish Long Covid strategy must provide enhanced psychological/psychiatric services to support affected individuals.

It was first anticipated that COVID-19’s enduring complications would be cardiac and pulmonary but this has not been the case. As shown at our research dissemination event at the Mater hospital last week, many Long Covid symptoms have been neurological and neuropsychiatric.
The UCD/Mater Hospital COVID-19 Dissemination Event will take place this evening (Wed May 11th) from 6-7.30pm! All are welcome to attend attend in person at the Catherine McAuley Centre (21 Nelson St, D7) or via zoom. Please contact Tina McHugh ([email protected]) for details.
The Anticipate [COVID-19] Study research dissemination event will take place in person at the Catherine McAuley Centre (near the Mater Hospital) and via zoom next Wednesday (May 11th) at 6pm! Please contact Ms. Tina McHugh for details. All are welcome.
Anticipate Study indicates that persistent health issues are common among patients with severe COVID-19, particularly those who are older adults, have pre-existing health problems, and who had been in ICU and/or readmission care.

Anticipate Study: Antibiotics are overused in moderately unwell patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Antibiotic duration appears related to oxygen dependency. Antibiotic requirements should be reviewed on an ongoing basis and stopped when not indicated.

Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is a significant cause of chronic liver disease. Among at-risk populations, access to diagnosis and treatment is challenging. We describe an integrated model of care, Hepcare Europe, developed to address this challenge.
