Although we are almost a year into the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, there is still much about the virus that we do not know. Post-recovery patients are likely to suffer substantial sequelae, but it is difficult to say exactly what these might be. To better understand and anticipate such, investigators are reviewing data from patients who recovered from sepsis. Research shows previously septic patients have increased mortality, physical disabilities, cognitive impairment, recurrent infections, and overall health deterioration for at least the following 2 years. The pandemic's impact will likely trigger enormous aftershocks in recovery and rehabilitation services. Anticipating possible scenarios now will help psychiatrists and other medical professionals prepare for effective treatment later.
