Risk of post-acute symptoms among adults: A comparison study of severe COVID-19, pneumonia, and influenza
Using a large national dataset, we found that COVID-19 symptomology could not be described by previously seen influenza or pneumonia symptomology and differences exist in the prevalence of symptoms as well as time to resolution, better characterizing "long COVID" and identifying that these differences are unique to COVID-19.
