Post-Covid would normally be hyphenated if used as an adjective. Long Covid wouldn't as it's a noun.

I think COVID (with a -19) is the official WHO spelling but press and real people all use Covid because it's easier on the eye.

This article may be of help.

Or it may just add to your confusion. The bottom line is that it depends where the text is going to appear, and on how you define "official".

Thanks! Sep 28, 2022

Thanks both! The COVID itself is clear, it was more about the long and post, but as Ice Scream wrote the same as I thought, I'll stick to it.
