Was that true of SARS1? What gives you that suspicion?
- IgorPartola 6y agoYes. People who have survived severe cases of SARS1 apparently had lasting lung damage that put that at significantly increased risk with COVID.
- chrisco255 6y agoSource on those numbers and how common that was?
- edw_ 6y agoThere's lots of writing on this topic. https://www.immunology.org/sites/default/files/BSI_Briefing_Note_August_2020_FINAL.pdf https://www.immunology.org/sites/default/files/BSI_Briefing_... "A longitudinal study of SARS1 patients from 2003 to 2018 found that more than a third had reduced lung capacity. Similarly, with MERS, a third of survivors had long-term lung damage."
