A member asked:
What are the long term health affects from contracting covid?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: For the vast majority of people nothing. For reasons that remain to be determined, this cornavirus produces a significant inflammatory response for some people. Especially for those who are older and smokers being some of the more common risk factors. The inflammatory response is why there are such different symptoms with the virus. Clotting seems to be one of the more critical problems.
