Acute and postacute sequelae associated with SARS-CoV-2 reinfection - Nature Medicine
A new analysis using US Department of Veterans Affairs databases showed that reinfection is associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality, hospitalization and a wide range of long COVID complications in individuals who have had SARS-CoV-2 compared to those with no reinfection.
Nafnlaus 🇮🇸 🇺🇦@erictopol Ugh.
I'm still baffled why we entirely wrote off the concept of passive non-pharmaceutical methods (filtration, ventilation, etc) and put all our eggs in the "vaccination and medications" basket.
JiminyTricket@nafnlaus @erictopol because the almighty Tanker full of pills makes more money than effective air-management with $30 in filters and a box fan :(
