Fortune: COVID can cause new health problems to appear years after infection, according to a study of more than 130,000 patients

With more than 130,000 patients, the study is by far the largest so far to track the progress of the virus over a full three-year period. It expands on work by Al-Aly and others at the two-year mark that found patients had elevated risk for long-COVID-related conditions that included diabetes, lung problems, fatigue, blood clots, and gastrointestinal and musculoskeletal disorders.

There has also been an increase in stroke, cardiac issues, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and dementia related to Covid. Pretty much any organ, any part of the vascular system, or any part of the neurological system can be adversely impacted by Covid (and inflammation).
