Over 2.1 million people in the UK are thought to be living with long Covid, the highest figure since official surveys began. But almost three years into the pandemic, there is still a struggle to be seen by specialist clinics, and a lack of understanding of the condition, its symptoms and cures.

So what do we really know when it comes to dealing with long Covid?

In this 3-part series, hosts Dan Walker and Ruth Liptrot, who herself has suffered with long Covid for nearly two years, speak to people affected and experts to see where we're at with understanding the condition, and helping those living with it towards recovery.

Living with Long Covid - with Dan Walker and Ruth Liptrot is a Channel 5 News original podcast, produced by Katie Goodman and Silvia Maresca.
