    My dad had Covid early this year. And as a PWP, I was particularly nervous about his response to the virus. He mainly noticed that he was extremely fatigued, and his Parkinson’s symptoms seemed to be a little worse than usual. It took him about 3 weeks to fully recover from the virus.

    Mary Beth,

    I had the Virus in August of 2021. Like your dad I was very tired. It lasted for about 2 weeks and then lingered for another week. It didn’t affect my Parkinson’s much. I hear about people with ‘long Covid’ and mine was not that. In fact I joked that I still have Parkinson’s but my Coronavirus is getting better. Funny. Blessings, Mike
