Published studies suggest physical recovery from the COVID-19 is complex, with many individuals experiencing persistent symptoms. There is a paucity of data investigating the longer-term trajectory of physical recovery from COVID-19. The aim of this study was to prospectively investigate objective physical recovery and self-reported well-being following COVID-19 amongst a heterogeneous group of hospitalised patients at 10-weeks, 6-months and 1-year following hospital-discharge.
