Health Department

- Daniel J. Stapleton, Niagara County Public Health Director
Long COVID is broadly defined as signs, symptoms and conditions that continue or develop after an initial COVID-19 infection. This definition of Long COVID was developed by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in collaboration with CDC and other partners.
The University at Buffalo is hoping to gather information to help researchers learn about Long COVID’s impact in our community through a
Long COVID Registry--click here to help by completing the registry: WNY Community-Based Long COVID Registry
