Community PostNo it certainly isn't. I would like to see clinics for everyone with long term post Covid symptoms where we could be fully assessed; given appropriate testing and access to whatever specialists were necessary. This would be followed up with individual rehabilitation programmes. These clinics would not be restricted to those who had been hospitalised and/or had a positive PCR test. Last week my GP indicated that NHS Lothian would be providing something along these lines but in his opinion this would not be available any time soon.

Community PostIn Edinburgh there is only the Post Covid Hub - a phone line run by pulmonary physios - who give general breathing and exercise advice. Both my GP and my rheumatologist have told me last week that there are no Covid Clinics in the Lothian area for either clinical investigation or rehabilitation.
