NEW YORK — As New York City continues its recovery from COVID-19, the NYC Test & Trace Corps today announced the launch of the AfterCare program to support New Yorkers living with the long-term effects of COVID-19. The new initiative housed in the Take Care program leverages the City’s wide-ranging resources to help Test & Trace clients cope with the far-reaching impact of COVID-19 on all aspects of life.

“For New Yorkers with Long COVID, your city is here for you,” said Mayor Bill de Blasio. “We are building a fair recovery for all of us, which means giving New Yorkers citywide the support they need to come back stronger than ever.”

Long COVID is a collection of symptoms that develop during or following a confirmed or suspected case of COVID-19, that continue for weeks or months afterward. It is estimated that Long COVID affects approximately 10% of those with COVID.
