Herpesviruses are ubiquitous and after primary infection they establish lifelong latency. The impairment of maintaining latency with short-term or long-term consequences could be triggered by other infection. Therefore, reactivation herpesviruses in COVID-19 patients represents an emerging issue.

Post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) represent an emerging global crisis. However, quantifiable risk factors for PASC and their biological associations are poorly resolved. We executed a deep multi-omic, longitudinal investigation 309 patients from initial diagnosis to convalescence (2-3 months later), integrated with clinical data patient-reported symptoms. resolved four PASC-anticipating at the time diagnosis: type 2 diabetes, SARS-CoV-2 RNAemia, Epstein-Barr virus viremia, specific auto-antibodies. In gastrointestinal PASC, SARS-CoV-2-specific CMV-specific CD8+ T cells exhibited unique dynamics during recovery COVID-19. Analysis symptom-associated immunological signatures revealed coordinated immunity polarization into endotypes, exhibiting divergent acute severity PASC. find that between diminish over time, leading distinct convalescent immune states.

Abstract Post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC), also known as Post-Covid Syndrome, and colloquially Long Covid, has been defined a constellation signs symptoms which persist for weeks or months after the initial infection. PASC affects wide range diverse organs systems, with manifestations involving lungs, brain, cardiovascular system other such kidney neuromuscular system. The pathogenesis is complex multifactorial. Evidence suggests that seeding persistence in different organs, reactivation, response to unrelated viruses EBV, autoimmunity, uncontrolled inflammation are major drivers PASC. relative importance pathogenetic pathways may differ tissue organ contexts. vaccination, addition protecting against disease, reduces breakthrough infection although its actual impact remains be defined. represents formidable challenge health care systems dissecting mechanisms pave way targeted preventive therapeutic approaches.

Most COVID-19 patients recovered with low mortality; however, some experienced long-term symptoms described as "long-COVID" or "Post-COVID syndrome" (PCS). Patients may have persisting for weeks after acute SARS-CoV-2 infection, including dyspnea, fatigue, myalgia, insomnia, cognitive and olfactory disorders. These last months in patients.

DNA viruses often persist in the body of their host, becoming latent and recurring many months or years later. By contrast, most RNA cause acute infections that are cleared from host as they lack mechanisms to persist. However, it is clear viral can after clinical recovery elimination detectable infectious virus. This persistence either be asymptomatic associated with late progressive disease nonspecific lingering symptoms, such may case following infection Ebola Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
