Reply to comment by T-Eug in 10% of patients infected early in the pandemic still had symptoms 1 year later. Common long COVID symptoms were shortness of breath (26.5%), joint pain (26.9%), loss of smell or taste (27.0%), impaired attention or concentration (22.3%), memory loss (40.0%), and sleep disorders (36.6%) by Wagamaga

Not everyone was locked down, many still had to go to work, many excersised at home more or ate healthier, and many still had social lives. You can account for those other factors by making sure to include participants who didn't have those other factors.

I never said everyone didn’t exercise, the vast majority didn’t. Gyms were closed. Where in the study did they account for these factors?

I was just postulating on how you could account for them given the population, though I too was unable to find the selection criteria specifics in what is posted here.
