Diving after Covid

2 years on, there has no end to it. 

In fact, of late, it seems like everyone around you has gotten Covid..

As a diver, while there has not been any substantial studies on diving after Covid, here's what we know thus far:

• Covid damages your lungs.. How far damaged depends on your severity.. It's always better to get your lungs checked before attempting to dive again..
• As we ascend, our lungs expand due to a drop in atmospheric pressure.. If the lungs are damaged, it will not be able to expand.. Any expansion will tear the lungs apart, and will result in death..

Shared by Dr Clement, a dive doctor based in Kuala Lumpur, below are what he requested for, before being cleared to dive again after getting Covid.
