By Dr. Liji Thomas, MDApr 3 2024Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM A recent study published in Nature Communications explored the association of COVID-19 with long-term allergic conditions.
Symptoms of PASC, in some cases, include immunologic phenomena that may cause allergic conditions of various kinds. What were the findings? After adjusting for all known variables that could affect the outcome, the researchers discovered that individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 showed a 20% higher occurrence of allergic diseases compared to those not infected.
Severity of infection and allergy risk Moderate-to-severe COVID-19 was linked to a 50% higher risk of overall allergy, compared to 14% among those with mild disease.
