Are the long covid symptoms the ones you have while youre infected or new ones that develop over time? ive read a lot about heart and lung issues past covid but i feel fine right now, i just dont want to experience long covid weeks months from now?

"Long covid" typically begins immediately, i.e. as the infection itself is clearing up. Having had a time with no symptoms and feeling well, you are at little or no risk of long covid. Please don't worry about it.

If you have fully recovered from COVID-19, you do not have Long-COVID-19, but if you are not vaccinated, you could encounter a new infection, which could lead to chronic issues in view of newer variants. Safest approach is to be proactive, and protect against future issues, but do not ponder complications which can be quite infrequent.
