The study is being led by Prof James Chalmers who is also a full time respiratory consultant at Ninewells. He showed me an X-Ray of a patient who has been treated at the hospital. He said: "We are concerned in the respiratory profession that we are seeing the start of a new lung condition which is post-Covid lung disease. There are a small proportion of patients who will be left with chronic lung conditions as a result of Covid and will require treatment. "So we'll need to have the clinics and the specialists to look after these patients and provide them with long-term care".
