Some people who suffer from the COVID-19 virus continue to experience symptoms long after the infection, from weeks to months and sometimes even years. While this typically happens in those who were severely ill or hospitalized, anyone who was infected can experience symptoms of long-COVID.
Long-COVID has many names, including Post-COVID Conditions, long-haul COVID, post-acute COVID-19, long-term effects of COVID, and chronic COVID.
Currently, the research shows evidence that antibodies—proteins produced by the immune system in response to viruses and other invaders—are involved in an attack on the cells which line the brain’s blood vessels, leading to inflammation and damage.
In addition to the direct effects on the brain, the infection can attack our body’s organs such as the lungs, heart and kidneys. Damage to these organs can negatively impact our bodies ability to function.
