70% have not fully recovered after a year
Of those hospitalised for COVID-19, over 70% have not fully recovered after a year. So far, no effective interventions exist. Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions are urgently needed to improve the ongoing burden for individuals and healthcare systems. There are now several Integrative Medicine treatments that produce promising results, and we are delighted to present them to you.
