Danish study shows 3rd booster dose reduces risk of long-COVID

A recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server found that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection during the Omicron variant predominant period was associated with post-acute symptoms of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) or ‘long COVID’, as well general health problems with new onset – four months after a COVID-19 positive test result.
