Flawed body of research indicates true 'long COVID' risk likely exaggerated, says new study
- The prevalence of long COVID may have been exaggerated due to flawed research and imprecise definitions, leading to unnecessary anxiety among individuals.
- The scientific literature on long COVID included overly broad definitions, lack of control groups, and methodological flaws, which likely overestimated the condition's true threat.
- Researchers emphasize the need for better case definitions, more stringent criteria, and inclusion of continuous symptoms after confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection to accurately identify long COVID.
