Five years ago , a cluster of people in Wuhan , China , fell sick with a virus never before seen in the world.

It wound up setting off a pandemic that exposed deep inequities in the global health system and reshaped public opinion about how to control emerging viruses.

The virus is evolving, meaning scientists must track it closely.

Millions of people remain in limbo with a sometimes disabling legacy of the pandemic called long COVID .

Symptoms include fatigue, cognitive trouble known as “brain fog,” pain and cardiovascular problems.

It can take several weeks to bounce back after a bout of COVID-19 , but some people develop more persistent problems.
