All the research
Long Covid Learning collects research from scientists worldwide and summarizes the findings to make takeaways more accessible to those outside the research community. Study summaries can be shared as links or images in messages and social media.

Damaged immune system
SARS-CoV-2 directly infects and kills immune cells (lymphocytes), reducing the body's ability to fight Covid and increasing the severity of future infections — both future Covid variants and other diseases. The infection of cells not only impairs the body's immune response, they may aggravate the infection by carrying the virus to other parts of the body through the bloodstream.

Damaged nervous system
SARS-CoV-2 can directly infect and reproduce in the cells of the central and peripheral nervous system. The resulting damage may be a cause of brain fog, cognitive and memory problems, dizziness, headaches, and other long-term symptoms that are frequent after Covid infection.

Hepatitis
SARS-CoV-2 may trigger autoimmune processes — T-cells attacking both the virus and the host's own cells — that may be involved in recent cases of hepatitis. Scientists identified mutations in SARS-CoV-2 that cause the virus's proteins to strongly resemble proteins belonging to the host (e.g., infected individuals).
