COVID-19 worsens Autoimmune Diseases! Study reveals 30 percent spike in antinuclear antibody positivity
“new study has revealed shocking details about the long-term health impacts of COVID-19, particularly concerning autoimmune diseases. The study conducted by Metropolis analyzed data from over 1.2 lakh cases, comparing two critical periods—2019 (pre-COVID) and 2022 (post-COVID). The findings revealed a striking 30% increase in the prevalence of Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) positivity in the Indian population, indicating how the immune system may, in some cases, turn against the body’s own tissues following a COVID-19 infection.”
