Post-SARS CFS-Like Syndrome

7 Comments

In 2003, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) spread from southeast Asia to North America causing a public health panic and many deaths. Fever, cough, muscle pain and air hunger were the primary presenting symptoms, and many people who did not die from the acute infection failed to recover. There has been little long-term follow-up of post-SARS cases. Moldofsky and Patcai compared 21 health care workers who had documented SARS and were not well enough to return to work 1-3 years later to 7 healthy females and 21 females who met the Fibromyalgia criteria.

They found that the chronic post-SARS syndrome shares clinical and sleep features with CFS and FM. A longer term, large scale study is needed to establish the contribution of epidemic and pandemic viral disease to the disordered sleep, chronic fatigue and other symptoms of CFS/FM.

    Children can experience SARS-CoV-2 postviral syndromes, but it is unclear to what extent these individuals are affected by long COVID. Evidence is predominantly limited to select populations without control groups,1-4 which does not allow estimating the overall prevalence and burden in a general pediatric population.

    Coronaviruses are readily transmitted across species. This phenomenon was illustrated when the SARS-coronavirus crossed species from bats to intermediate hosts, such as palm civets, and then to humans. It also explains the large number of species, including humans, that are infected with viruses closely related to bovine coronavirus.

    Buy pure Ketamine Crystals Powder online, Ketamine is primarily used to initiate and maintain anesthesia. It provides pain relief, sleepiness, and memory loss while inducing a trance-like state. Sedation in intensive care, as well as the treatment of pain and depression, are some of the other uses of it.
