| Impact statement: This nationwide study, involving 3,244 participants, identifies that the Quality of Life (QoL) for COVID-19 recovered patients in Bangladesh is generally good but varies significantly based on socio-demographic factors. Key findings reveal that females, older adults, the unemployed, and those with chronic diseases (especially cancer, CKD, and Asthma/COPD) experience significantly lower QoL. Crucially, while physical, social, and environmental QoL improved as more time passed since diagnosis, psychological well-being remained low, indicating a need for policymakers to focus on long-term mental health support and rehabilitation programs for the post-COVID-19 population. | Collaboration: Government | Keywords: COVID-19, Quality of life, Bangladesh, WHOQOL-BREF, recovered patients, physical domain, psychological domain, social relations |
