That's how you are likely to develop Long Covid-even if you are vaccinated
A new study broke out how often patients develop persistent symptoms.
Assessing starts painting a clearer image of probabilityRevolutionary infections Ax in those who are fully vaccinated - and how effective the shots are to prevent hospitalization or death of the virus. But even when we start to better understand how existing vaccines canWe protect new variants Such as Delta, relatively little information is available in terms of revolutionary infections and long-term effects of the disease. Fortunately, a new study highlights the probability ofFully vaccinated people Develop Long Covid,The New York Times reports.

The latest research, published in theNew England Journal of Medicine July 28, focused on a group of 1,497Fully vaccinated health workers In Israel. Among the group, 39 revolutionary infections have been reported - which amounted to 2.6% - with most cases showing only light symptoms or not. But the researchers found that seven of the 36 health workers or 19% - which were followed with six weeks after the infection have always reported persistent symptoms associated with a long covid, including weakness, fatigue, loss. of odor, cough and muscle pain,The temperature reports.
However, the authors of the study immediately warned against drawing too many conclusions of the results. In addition to the small size of the sample, the study itself has also been designed to testAntibody levels In those with revolutionary infections, do not assess the risk of developing long covidants for fully vaccinated persons. Nevertheless, some experts show conclusions as a reason to continue to be careful to avoid any infection.
"I will take it to the nominal value of a person in five, six weeks after a bank revealing, continued to feel forbidden"Robert M. Wachter, MD, Professor and President of the Ministry of Medicine at the University of California, in San Francisco, saidThe temperature with regard to research. "It's enough to make me want to wear two masks when I go to the grocery store, which is not so heavy anyway."

Although Sadic scientific research is available on the subject in addition to the Israeli study, there have been someOther informal data collected. Recently, a team of researchers working withSurvivorAn organization providing support and resources to people with Long Covid, launched a new Facebook survey targeting people whogot Covid after being vaccinated. The survey presented to the group of approximately 169,900 members received answers of nearly 2,000 entirely vaccinated participants by the July 22 deadline.
PreliminaryResults of the current survey, which have been published on Medrxiv on July 25, found that these initial respondents, 44 reported symptomatic cases of COVID after being fully vaccinated with Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson. More than half of people with revolutionary infections - or 24 respondents reported having symptoms of COVID.
Of the 44 revolutionary coovidant patients who responded to the investigation, 19 were recipients of Pfizer, 12 of whom reported that their infection led to Long Covid; 17 were recipients of Moderna, with six reports of their infections resulted in Long Covid; And eight had Johnson & Johnson vaccine, six of whom reported he developed Long Covid. Of all respondents, a single breakthrough infection has led both Covid and long hospitalization.

Similar to the Israeli study, researchers in the survivor's body survey pointed out that other "rigorous and detailed studies" will be needed before drawing conclusions. "The survey was limited and respondents are very automatically selected, so it is therefore not possible to estimate the advanced rates or subsequent risk of Long COVID," wrote researchers in the results of the survey.

Currently, US Disease and Prevention Centers (CDC) only recordsRevolutionary infections This leads to hospitalization or death, that some experts argue make it almost impossible to determine what might happen in the real world. "It is very frustrating not to have any data at this stage of the pandemic to know what happens to the revolutionary cases"Akiko Iwasaki, PhD, immunologist at the Yale School of Medicine who runs long Covid, saidThe temperature. "If a soft breakthrough infection turns into a long Covid, we have no understanding of this number."
Nevertheless, other experts point out that whatever the missing data, being fully vaccinated, will make the number of global and long COVID cases down. "It's simple mathematics" Athena Akrami , a neuroscientist at College London University who collects and Publication of data on long patients Covid , Recount The temperature . "If you reduce infections, the probability of Long Covid will automatically fall automatically."
