Though the virus can affect other organs, its effects on the lungs are the most concerning. This can lead to lung diseases such as pneumonia; in the worst-case scenario, it can lead to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), also known as “wet lung”. Even though COVID-19 has become the norm in our daily lives, we cannot deny that it still affects us deeply.
In a conversation with Dr Ashari Yunus, the Consultant Pulmonologist at Institut Jantung Negara (IJN) and part of IJN’s multi-disciplinary team dedicated to post-covid care, he brings his medical insights on how to improve lung health after the Covid-19 infection.
