The mother of an 11-year-old girl with long Covid has launched legal action against NHS Grampian, in what is thought to be the first case regarding the condition of its kind in Scotland.

Helen Goss, from Westhill in Aberdeenshire, is seeking “damages” stemming from what she claims is medical negligence towards her daughter Anna Hendy, who has suffered with long Covid since March 2020.
