    Abstract Objectives: To evaluate two different types of education and training aids to improve compliance with guidelines related to personal protective equipment in healthcare workers.
    Methods: The quasi-experimental study was conducted at the Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, Combined Military Hospital, Rawalpindi, from July 1 to December 31, 2020, and comprised healthcare personnel who were divided into two equal groups. Group A received weekly instructor-led training session of donning and doffing for two hours. Group B was assigned to watch 30-min training videos weekly. After one month, an independent instructor evaluated both the groups using validated checklists, with maximum score 8 for donning and 14 for doffing. Data was analysed using SPSS 22.
    Results: Of the 60 subjects, 34(56.6%) were females and 26(43.3%) were males. There were 30(50%) subjects in group A with a mean age of 35.35±5.67years, and the remaining 30(50%) were n group B with a mean age of 33.12±4.13 years. There was no significant difference in donning and doffing scores between the groups (p>0.05).
    Conclusions: Both types of education and training aids could be used to improve compliance with guidelines related to personal protective equipment in healthcare workers.

    Abstract Background:  The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) virus pandemic rapidly spread across the globe since 2020. It was characterized by a number of acute signs and symptoms. There were, however, some new-onset signs and symptoms labelled as "Long COVID". This study was conducted to study its prevalence and associations with blood group.
    Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted in Islamabad for patients diagnosed with COVID-19 in 2020-2021. Information was collected through an online and physical questionnaire regarding personal demographics, symptoms during and after COVID-19, and blood group. The data was analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 25.0 (Released 2017; IBM Corp., Armonk, New York, United States).
    Results: The study identified 196 participants out of which 48.5% were male and 51% were female, with a median age of 30. Most participants (62.2%) belonged to the Punjabi ethnicity. The mean BMI was 25.56 kg/m
    Conclusion:  There was no association found between long COVID and ABO blood groups. Females were more likely than males to experience long COVID. Long COVID was found to be more likely to develop in those with perceived severe acute infection, highlighting the need for further research regarding aggressive care from the onset of COVID-19 infection.
