Planning a holiday when you have post-viral fatigue can sometimes require extra preparation, but it doesn’t necessarily mean travel is off the table.

What is post-viral fatigue?

Post-viral fatigue is a condition where ongoing tiredness, weakness, and reduced energy levels continue after a viral infection, such as flu or COVID-19. It can vary in severity and may affect daily activities for weeks or months. In the UK, many people experience post-viral fatigue following common illnesses, particularly during periods of widespread infection.

With the right preparation, medical guidance, and suitable travel insurance, many people who manage post-viral fatigue continue to travel abroad with confidence.

Having the right travel insurance in place for post-viral fatigue can help to cover:

  • Emergency medical treatment if your condition worsens during your trip
  • Hospital stays and related medical expenses abroad
  • Medical repatriation to the UK if further treatment is needed
  • Cancellation costs if you have to cancel your trip for medical reasons

Travel advice for people with a medical condition like post-viral fatigue

  • Plan your activities at a comfortable pace
  • Consider taxis or public transport to reduce walking distances
  • Take time to rest if post-viral fatigue or other symptoms increase
  • Keep your itinerary flexible so you don’t overexert yourself with post-viral fatigue

During the quote process, we will ask about any pre-existing medical conditions, including post-viral conditions and fatigue-related illnesses. If relevant, you will need to declare your post-viral fatigue on the policy.

Many people with post-viral fatigue can still arrange travel insurance with us. The cover available depends on the details of your diagnosis and how it is currently managed, so full and accurate answers in the medical declaration help us find the most suitable options.
