Also, I just noticed that only 18 out of more than 1000 health administrators that they reached out to actually filled in their survey, which is...
They also report: "Participants reporting an infectious onset (when compared to those who did not) were also significantly more likely to report:...
Data was from surveying health administrators, so it is possible that this is an underestimate due to underreporting.
Prevalence of LC severe enough that the students had to stop training was between 0-1.3%. [ATTACH]
Abstract Background Symptomatic COVID-19 and Long COVID, also referred to as post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC) or post-COVID conditions,...
Yes, Zeynep and I had some back and forth on Twitter and she pointed out that they did say they asked the patients if they were mild, moderate or...
It's frequency and severity over the last 6 months for these symptoms: 1. Fatigue/extreme tiredness 2. Minimum exercise makes you...
This is the preprint. See post #4 for the published paper Augmentation of Anaerobic Pentose Phosphate Pathway Dysregulates Tetrahydrobiopterin...
Looks potential interesting, but it also looks like they included a lot of variables and with p = 0.022 this could just be noise. It also looks...
I think Zeynep's got the wrong end of the stick there. It's true that the treatment didn't seem to eliminate any symptoms, but it seems fairly...
This is an interesting, though not surprising, bit of data: "Among Canadians who reported ever experiencing longterm symptoms, females (33.0%)...

Here's the video for day two. I found the talk from Brent Appelman, starting here, interesting. The first half is from a forthcoming study where...
Thanks @EndME! Here's a link to the start of this specific talk.
"The current burden, measured in June 2023, is also substantial: 6.8% of all Canadian adults or 2.1 million people continue to experience...
Published as a preprint. See post #7 And now published in final form - link here ****** This is an abstract from the Demystifying Long COVID...
Good point. Not sure we have evidence to say this effect would be strong enough to explain the difference, but it could be part of the...
I wouldn't agree that recovery is rare. I think that's heavily influenced by sampling bias (easy for us to think of lots of people who have had ME...
I think you have two factor that balance each other out to some degree. Many people who have ME are undiagnosed, but also if you ask people “Have...
I think what Al-Aly's papers are measuring is largely not ME-type LC. If you really look at their analysis, I think there are some pretty big...
