Association between COVID-19 vaccination, SARS-CoV-2 variants, and post COVID-19 condition: A cross-sectional study
Patients who were partially or fully vaccinated did not have increased risk of reporting common PCC symptoms. Infection with the alpha and delta variants was associated with increased likelihood of reporting dyspnea, which may be related to the severity of acute illness and associated impairments in lung function.
