The new findings that we reported today demonstrate persistent risk of major adverse outcomes with Long Covid at 3-years after acute infection in patients who were hospitalized. The findings are backed up by other reports reviewed here. At this juncture, we can’t get 3-year follow up from vaccinated individuals at any scale, so a reminder the results here pertain to the infections occurring in the first year of the pandemic. In general, multiple previous studies indicate about a 40% or greater reduction of Long Covid from vaccination compared with unvaccinated controls.
Particularly concerning are the multiple new reports of Covid brain impact at longer term, as succinctly presented by the panel of neurologists. Please take the time to read the 5 points above that we’ve highlighted.
