Long Covid Risk And Symptoms Vary In Different Populations: Study

The risk of long COVID and its lingering symptoms present very differently across diverse populations, according to a study which suggests that further investigation is needed to accurately define the disease and improve diagnosis and treatment.

The study, published recently in the journal Nature Communications, analysed electronic health records in the US to better understand the persistence of symptoms after SARS-CoV-2 infection, also known as long COVID, among broad, diverse populations.

“Long COVID is a new disease that is very complicated and quite difficult to characterise,” said Chengxi Zang, an  instructor in population health sciences at Weill Cornell Medicine, US, and lead author of the study.
