Abstract

Confusion, fear, and anarchy were widely felt around the world during the pivotal years of the worldwide pandemic COVID-19. As this respiratory disease—which mostly affects the lungs but may also affect many other bodily organs in the event of complications—proliferated quickly over the globe, scientists and biologists hurriedly set about creating methods for its treatment and prevention. The greatest method to protect mankind from this continuing epidemic, like with all other viral infections, is vaccination. Similar to how the respiratory system was affected, other biological systems were as well, notably the musculoskeletal system, which had poor muscular endurance during performance. The treatment of post-covid musculoskeletal issues depends heavily on physical therapy.
