Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) raised major concerns about the association between the virus and various autoimmune manifestations. Over 15 distinct autoantibodies and above 10 different autoimmune diseases were found to develop in COVID-19 patients. Moreover, evidence about recovered COVID-19 patients demonstrates that persistent systemic symptoms, which are believed to have an autoimmune-related mechanism, do exist.
As it is of great importance to recognize those autoimmune manifestations of COVID-19 and post-COVID-19 syndrome to properly cope with their outcomes in the ongoing pandemic and the long-term post-pandemic period, this book fulfills a vital need in the medical community.
- Describe the short and long impact of COVID-19 on autoimmunity
- Provides understanding to the acute and chronic impact of the SARS-CoV-2
- Gives insights into the long-term effects of COVID-19 on recovered patients
- Provides conclusions on the novel terms "chronic post-COVID-19 syndrome", "post-acute COVID-19 syndrome", and "long COVID-19"
