Brief summary of the request

It would be helpful to have codes to recognise longer term effects of Covid-19. 'Suspected long Covid' and 'long Covid' would enable us to record. 

Description of the addition or change

We are recognising long term sequelae of Covid-19 infection. Some patients had swab proven Covid-19, others suspected but not lab proven Covid-19. It would help us to audit those people with ongoing symptoms.
