Overview
Brief Summary
SARS-CoV2 pneumonia has been a global public health emergency since 2020. The prevalence of the disease is particularly high with more than 500 million cases worldwide (7.5 million in France) since the emergence of the virus.
A substantial proportion of patients with SARS-Cov2 infection present persistent symptoms long after the acute infection. This is independent of the degree of severity of the SARS-Cov2 infection.
These symptoms can affect the quality of life and impede the return to work. While the majority of symptoms progress favourably with outpatient care, some persist and/or are particularly severe, justifying expert and multidisciplinary care.
This investigation aim to create a clinical database of patients with complex and/or severe post-CoviD and study blood markers what could predict the disease and orientate new ways of treatment.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Create a patient cohort
Time Frame: Once a year
Creation of a retrospective and prospective cohort combining: * Collection of clinical and paraclinical data, scores, and scales. * Prospective monitoring of quality of life, other scores as needed. Cross-referencing of clinical data with the results of cellular and molecular analyzes on lymphocytes blood cells, which will be carried out (part carried out by Inserm). by INSERM U1111 as part of the European HERVCOV project.
Secondary Outcomes
- Identify new research pathway to improve Post-Covid syndrome knowledge(12 month)
- Biological analyses to find new molecular targets (biomarkers)(12 month)
