Neurovestibular Sequelae of Long COVID: A Multisystem Analysis of Vertigo, Genomic Resonance, and Clinical Consequence
Author: John Murphy, MD CEO & President, COVID-19 Long-haul Foundation Abstract Vertigo and disequilibrium are increasingly recognized as disabling sequelae of Long COVID, yet remain under-characterized in clinical literature. This […]
Researchers have identified a potential biomarker for long COVID.
If the findings of their study are confirmed by other research centers, the biomarker could be the first specific and quantifiable indicator for confirming long COVID. Currently, clinicians confer a […]
Millions could be living with hidden smell loss after COVID without knowing
Summary: A massive NIH-backed study reveals that COVID-19’s toll on smell may be more widespread and lasting than most realize. Even patients without noticeable symptoms often performed poorly on scent […]
