The question addresses the provision of continuing healthcare for individuals recovering outside hospitals after being severely affected by covid-19.
What plans does the government have in place to provide continuing healthcare for people who are recovering out of hospital from COVID-19, considering that many may need prolonged rehabilitation?
My hon. Friend raises an important point. We are still learning about the impact of this horrible disease, but we know it may take people some time to recover and they may need extra help after they have been discharged from hospital. We are indeed doing work to ensure that the right support is there for them.
