“Fecal transplantation from subjects to germ-free mice led to lung inflammation & worse outcomes during pulmonary infection by multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. transplanted mice also exhibited poor cognitive performance. Overall, we show prolonged impacts of infection on the gut microbiota that persist after subjects have cleared the virus”

“we explore evidence for SARS-CoV-2 reservoir in PASC & provide context on interpretation of the findings. We delineate mechanisms by which a SARS-CoV-2 reservoir may contribute to PASC pathology & identify central research priorities & methods to guide the continued study of SARSCoV2 persistence in PASC”

spike protein induces endothelial inflammation via ACE2 independently of viral replication

“Here we demonstrate SARS-CoV-2 is a potent inducer of pro-inflammatory molecules, such as cytokines (IL-6, TNFα), chemokines (MCP-1), PAI-1 and adhesion molecules (ICAM-1, VCAM-1), and that it activates pro-inflammatory signalling through NFκB and ERK1/2 in endothelial cells.”

"There is a huge overlap between what people with Long have and ME/ . And a lot of people with are being diagnosed with . For many people, these conditions are one and the same. A lot of the symptoms are similar and a lot of the social experiences...that dismissal that marginalization... extend across these diseases."

There are risks to the individual (the risk of death, but also the risk of long term health issues and even the risk of not being able to earn money or carry out other activities when ill). There also risks to people they are in contact with.

Her message is that journalists are treating the pandemic as if Covid infections don’t matter any more and it’s time to move on. This, she says, shames people who remain cautious about Covid and it does not communicate the risks which still exist.

“Taken together the findings suggest that the risk horizon for postacute sequelae after infection is prolonged even among nonhospitalized individuals and is further prolonged among hospitalized individuals—highlighting the importance of reducing risk of hospitalization among people with SARS-CoV-2 infection (and reinfection) as a means to reduce the risk of long-term health loss.”

"In sum, while risks of many sequelae declined 2 years after infection, the substantial cumulative burden of health loss due to PASC calls for attention to the care needs of people with long-term health effects due to SARS-CoV-2 infection."
