n=185
- long COVID symptoms: 30.3% (56/185)
- positive for #EBV #reactivation : 66.7% (20/30) of long COVID subjects versus 10% (2/20) of control subjects
"findings suggest that many long COVID symptoms may not be a direct result of the #SARSCoV2 virus but may be the result of #COVID19 inflammation-induced #EBV reactivation."
