Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. The health consequences among COVID-19 convalescent patients 30 months post-infection were described and the potential risk factors were determined.
In August 2022 217 COVID-19 convalescent patients were recruited who had been diagnosed with COVID-19 in February 2020. These convalescent patients were residents of multiple districts in Wuhan, China. All convalescent patients completed a detailed questionnaire, laboratory testing, a 6-min walk test, a Borg dyspnea scale assessment, lung function testing, and had a chest CT. The potential risk factors for health consequences among COVID-19 convalescent patients 30 months post-infection were identified using a multivariate logistic regression model.
