Hope for resuming a normal life after COVID-19<\/strong><\/em><\/h5>\n

On June 17, professional players of the Juventus Football Club played the Italian Cup final, and subsequently other Italian teams started playing in League A again. In particular, one of them had recovered from COVID-19 just one month earlier, after testing positive on four different occasions (the first of which in mid March). He admitted coronavirus had taken a huge toll on his health and even left him struggling to breathe. Similarly, other professional athletes who have suffered from COVID-19 recovered and resumed their sports at a competitive level. Obviously, most COVID-19 survivors are not professional athletes, but a significant share of them were practicing physical activity on a regular basis before falling ill. Different from professional athletes, these persons cannot generally benefit from a dedicated staff during recovery.<\/p>\n

Data collected at the Fondazione Policlinico Agostino Gemelli IRCCS (Rome, Italy) post-acute care COVID-19 service from SARS-CoV-2 infection survivors (1) indicate that a strikingly high number of them complain of several characteristic disease symptoms weeks after testing negative. A<\/p>\n

s of today, more than 350 adults (mean age: 56.5 \u00b1 14.6 years; range: 18\u221286 years; 37% women) have being followed at our centre. It is important to highlight that more than 50% of COVID-19 survivors complain of substantial fatigue two months after disease onset (60.3 \u00b1 13.6 days) (2).<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The long-term persistence of fatigue deserves adequate evaluation and appropriate interventions. For those who “struggle” to resume their usual activities of daily living and\/or are unable to return playing their favourite sport, tailored physical activity protocols should be implemented. To this aim, our post-COVID-19 service has developed specific physical activity programmes. The physical activity protocol of “SPRINTT” (3), a European project aimed at preventing mobility disability in frail older people with sarcopenia, has been re-shaped to adapt it to COVID-19 survivors. The programme is also offered to those who remained physically inactive during the two-month lockdown issued in Italy (@longevity_run).<\/p>\n

The successful story of the professional athletes brings a message of hope: medical counselling and adapted physical activity may allow COVID-19 survivors resuming their pre-infection lives.<\/p>\n
