Sociodemographic data, clinical history and care, comorbidities, and treatment were recorded for each of the 267 individuals over 18 years of age. Results: Females were predominant in 61.7% (n=165). Individuals reported as coexisting risk medical conditions, hypertension as the most common comorbidity in 14.6% (n=39). In this study, 57% (n=152) of people reported tiredness/fatigue as the main symptom that persisted for more than 3 months. Fever was the most reported first sign in 25.3% (n=67).
