How is survival defined? Do they mean "gets released from hospital vs. dies in hospital"? Because it seems a lot of things that can reduce severity of Covid (including vitamin D for example) don't change much at the last minute when you're at deaths door.
In this case, we're talking about long Covid symptoms so it would seem a reduction in 1-year mortality should be the deciding factor (since Severe Covid patients who "survive" still have significantly increase mortality over the next year).
