Chinese scientists from the city of Wuhan, from whom the worldwide pandemic originated, concluded that symptoms of the cornea virus can appear within six months of recovering. This is stated in the results of a study published in the medical journal The Lancet.
Scientists came to these conclusions when observing patients discharged from Jin Yin-Tan Hospital (Wuhan, China) between January 7, 2020 and May 29, 2020.
The study included 1,733 people hospitalized with Covid-19.
Many were hospitalized before the disease even got its name.
About three-quarters of patients reported persistent symptoms six months after diagnosis. Notably, 63% of the subjects reported that they still suffer from muscle weakness or muscle weakness. 23% said they were anxious or depressed, and 26% said they had trouble sleeping.
The SARS-CoV-2 virus is responsible for COVID-19 coronavirus infection, and, as has been proven, is primarily a respiratory infection. The most common symptoms are persistent cough and high fever.
Recently, a group of British scientists found that eye pain, and conjunctivitis in particular, may indicate the presence of a coronavirus.
