For some COVID-19 survivors, the fight is not over even after they test negative for the virus. Some are able to survive the virus, and then weeks, and months later, still suffer from side effects.

For Rachel Taback, she has been fighting since June 27 when she started to feel COVID-19 symptoms. It wasn't until nearly three weeks later that she went to the emergency room for the first time.

“I got to a point where I was like, I this is not going away. The shortness of breath started coming," Taback said.

Since then, Taback has been to the hospital a total of three times and has been to the Mayo Clinic to seek help twice.

“It's frustrating because they don't have the answers and I'm not frustrated with the doctors. The doctors are just as frustrated as we are. It's the issue of the unknown," explained Taback.
