Exploring the effects of "Long-term" COVID-19

In what follows, the goal is to transmit information about severity of symptoms. We ask that you stay focused on symptom severity today, or in the past week at most. So, "Yes, I had this once, a year ago, and it was quite severe," is NOT what we're after here.

Using a scale ranging from 0 to 100, select a value that best represents severity of the presented symptom or finding. A value of 0 should be taken to mean, "Not at all. Don't have that." And 100 would of course be "the very worst" that that symptom could possibly be. Again, this value assigned for today or in the very recent past.

Sliders are used to offer a way of responding that has proven effective in other settings. As you move the slider, you'll see the value you select appear.

We also are interested in the time it takes to give your responses. Please have a stopwatch ready, and be mindful of when it says to start and stop timing.

Question Title

* 3. What Study Day number is this?  (For those in the QI group, it's either Day 0 before starting light intervention, or Day 11 after 10 days). Both are essentially identical, but we need to assure which day this is.
