Question 4257 — diseases

Summary

Ms. Laurence Maillart-Méhaignerie draws the attention of the Minister of Health and Prevention to the application of Law No. 2022-53 of January 24, 2022. This law, passed unanimously, aims to create the platform for referencing and caring for chronic patients with covid-19. For the High Authority of Health, there is the need for three cumulative criteria for a patient to be recognized as suffering from long covid: they must have presented a symptomatic form of covid-19, have one or more initial symptoms beyond four weeks after the start of their illness and none of these symptoms can be explained by another cause. According to the High Authority for Health, 10% of people who contracted covid-19 still have symptoms more than 6 months later. Long covid affects more than 2 million adults, according to figures published in April 2022 by Public Health France. In order to be able to centralize and direct patients to appropriate structures or care, the implementing decree of law no. 2022-53 of January 24, 2022 is awaited by long-term covid patients. Also, she would like to know the date of publication of the decree implementing law no. 2022-53 of January 24, 2022.
