As the COVID-19 pandemic winds down, clinical and public health laboratories, along with industry partners, reflect on the successes and failures of the pandemic response. To capture the lessons learned and better prepare for the next pandemic, the
Persistent SARS-CoV-2 infections may act as viral reservoirs that could seed future outbreaks^(1-5), give rise to highly divergent lineages^(6-8) and contribute to cases with post-acute COVID-19 sequelae (long COVID)^(9,10). However, the population
CONCLUSIONS: This study shows persistent fatigue and diverse symptomatology in post COVID-19 patients, up to 12-18 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Clustering showed that post COVID-19 patients occurred in 11 of the clusters that have been observed
CONCLUSION: Cost-benefit analyses, opinions about one's look, and communication difficulties are the key factors influencing students' non-compliance with mask-wearing regulations. To encourage student compliance with mask-wearing regulations at
CONCLUSION: Healthcare workers showed high levels of psychological impact during the COVID-19 pandemic. Such impact was predicted from some work-stress variables and the reliance on maladaptive strategies such as experiential avoidance and expressive
CONCLUSIONS: Long COVID prevalence was 40-60% lower among adults vaccinated (vs. unvaccinated) prior to their COVID-19 onset. COVID-19 vaccination may be an important tool to reduce the burden of long COVID.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The extent and burden of postacute psychiatric and neurologic manifestations of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection are not yet fully understood. To evaluate the association between SARS
Post-COVID-19 syndrome involves a variety of symptoms that last more than 12 weeks after COVID diagnosis. This study aimed to analyze post-COVID-19 syndrome among hospitalized COVID-19 patients 6 and 12 months after hospital discharge. This is an
CONCLUSION: Through the estimation of background rates related to anaphylaxis, myocarditis, pericarditis, GBS, and mortality, we established a reference point for evaluating the potential excess occurrence of adverse events following COVID-19
