Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound effect on daily life. Although it was mainly an acute disease, sequelae and complications of the disease were recognized soon in the pandemic course. Indeed, some of these complications were included in the initial term “post-acute sequelae of COVID-19” now recognized as long-COVID.
Acute COVID-19 has been thoroughly studied, but the pathophysiology and prognosis of the short and long-term sequelae are uncertain. A better understanding of these conditions, including characterizing the illness and the impact of vaccination would be of the highest importance. Unmet clinical needs still exist such as risk factors, early prediction of patients who will develop severe COVID-19 or sequelae, treatment options, and preventive measures.
This Special Issue aims to promote a better understanding of the short and long-term sequelae and complications of COVID-19, including long-COVID conditions, from several points of view. We would like to invite original research, short communications, review, and viewpoints. We look forward to your valuable scientific contributions.
