Long COVID Persistence and Surveillance Gaps Across 58 US Hospitals Key Points Question What is the true burden of chronic disease following COVID-19, and why does current surveillance fail to capture it? Findings In this cohort study of 457 950 patients with COVID-19 across 58 hospitals, validated computable phenotyping identified postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection in 16.28% of cases, 2-fold higher than diagnostic code–based surveillance. Of identified manifestations, 89.31% represented chronic conditions, with prevalence increasing through mid-2024. Meaning These findings suggest that approximately 1 in 6 patients with COVID-19 develops postacute sequelae, predominantly chronic conditions currently invisible to surveillance systems, representing an accumulating rather than resolving health care burden. Conclusions and Relevance In this cohort study, approximately 1 in 6 patients with COVID-19 developed PASC, and 89.31% of these patients had at least 1 chronic condition. Current diagnostic coding captured fewer than one-half of the cases, obscuring a substantial chronic disease burden. The persistently increasing prevalence through 2024 indicated an accumulating health care burden requiring investment in surveillance infrastructure and integrated care pathways. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2849452

The reviewers were from the same group that gave a pass to "≥FFP2 respirators don't work says group that never wore ≥FFP2 respirators in highly populated enclosed spaces containing SARS-CoV-2 infected people"?

An excellent reason to vaccinate earlier than 60 years of age. Dementia is a slowly progressive disease slower than shingles. If you can afford it just do it at 30 and pay the $$. #auspol25 #PreventionBetterThanCure

What we really want to know is when they will break out the euphemisms for airborne transmission & ≥FFP2 respirators. Will Sir Richard Wharton's F&CO 4 stage strategy will be implemented?🙄🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Hey, but don't worry, the minimisers are on it, because why worry when a novel rapidly mutating neurotropic adventitious agent is popping up? ...
