“But it really messed with my smell and taste. I’d say I’m a longCOVID person. I had all the brain fog… people were like, 'You are in menopause,’ and I would be like, 'Yeah, but this is different because I’m looking at a rolling pin and I can’t name it.’”

The SARS-CoV-2 trigger highlights host interleukin 1 genetics in Epstein-Barr virus reactivation
The SARS-CoV-2 trigger highlights host interleukin 1 genetics in Epstein-Barr virus reactivation

A new Czech study (Cell Reports, 2025): SARS-CoV-2 can trigger Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation - and in some people, that leads to long-term lung damage in long COVID.

Biomarker Patterns in Post-Acute COVID Vary by Symptom and Time Since Infection
Biomarker Patterns in Post-Acute COVID Vary by Symptom and Time Since Infection
“In patients with post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), biomarker profiles varied according to symptom type and time since infection, and levels of inflammatory biomarkers (IFN gamma and CD163) and vascular activation biomarkers (VCAM-1 and ICAM-1) showed strong correlations with specific long-COVID symptoms.”

He ran marathons and hiked Everest. But after being ravaged by long COVID, this Hamilton man can’t work — he can barely leave home

“I can’t live like this anymore. It’s terrible, really horrible.”

“By September 2023, his marriage was over, he’d been evicted from his home.. He moved back in with his parents in Hamilton. His 72-year-old dad is his sole caregiver after his mom died in March 2024.”

“SARS-CoV-2 is known to bind with mitochondrial proteins in humans.

Mitochondrial dysfunction caused by COVID persists past the acute phase.

Evidence of ongoing mitochondrial and metabolic dysfunction has been found in the heart, kidneys, liver, and lymph nodes, for example.”

Excess weight is associated with neurological and neuropsychiatric symptoms in post-COVID-19 condition: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Excess weight is associated with neurological and neuropsychiatric symptoms in post-COVID-19 condition: A systematic review and meta-analysis
A new study published Wednesday in PLOS has identified neurological and neuropsychiatric symptoms — headaches, vertigo, sleep problems, smell and taste disorder, depression — as more likely to occur in people with what the authors term “excess weight” based on BMI.
