Sept. 25, 2023 -- People with long COVID have specific biomarkers in their blood, a study published Monday inThe findings may be a step toward creating blood tests to positively identify people with long COVID so specialized treatments can be employed, researchers said.
Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Yale School of Medicine looked at blood samples from about 270 people between January 2021 and June 2022. The people had never been infected with COVID, had fully recovered from an infection, or still showed symptoms at least four months after infection.
