That doesn't seem like "zero" to me.
Furthermore note that the result wouldn't be surprising. Long-term followup on SARS finds that 15 years after being infected, 4.6% still had visible lesions in the lungs and 38% had reduced diffusion capacity. Given that, the claim that a significant minority (eg > 5%) of people with COVID-19 should still have significant symptoms after several months seems quite plausible.
