Anyways here are the results

Overall, 43% of respondents reported one or more symptoms of three months’ duration or longer meeting the WHO definition for Long COVID (Fig. 1).4 Among socioeconomic subgroups, we found significant differences (p < 0.05) in Long COVID rates by age, gender, insurance status, income insecurity, symptom severity, number of infections, COVID-19 variant, vaccination status, income level, and Mexican background. By gender, Long COVID rates were higher among women (50%) than men (36%) (p < 0.01) (Table 1). Women also reported higher rates of anxiety (38% vs 28%, p < 0.01) and sleep difficulty (37% vs 23%, p < 0.01) than men. By age, the highest Long COVID rates were among 40–64 year-olds (46%), followed by 18–39 year-olds (42%) and 65 + year-olds (35%) (p = 0.06). There were also significant differences by age (18–39 years, 40–64 years, 65 + years) in rates of fatigue (35%, 46%, 38%), muscle pain (28%, 41%, 42%), loss of taste or smell (39%, 23%, 24%), difficulty with exercise (18%, 29%, 24%), and vision (8%, 21%, 32%).
