Background a P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Among 369 participants, 50.1 per cent were male and 49.9 per cent female. Baseline QoL scores showed no significant differences between participants with and without post-COVID syndrome (PCoVS). However, six months later, non-PCoVS participants reported significantly better scores in physical ( P =0.004), psychological ( P <0.001), social ( P =0.002), and environmental health ( P =0.003). Better QoL was associated with males, younger age, higher education, and absence of comorbidities. Interpretation & conclusions PCoVS significantly impacts survivors’ QoL, necessitating continuous monitoring and tailored interventions to support recovery. This study underscores the importance of addressing long-term consequences to improve public health outcomes.
