Prevalence of Long COVID in Mycobacterium tuberculosis-exposed groups

Objectives: -exposed populations in Peru. Methods: We recruited people with TB (n = 36) and their asymptomatic household contacts (n = 63) in Peru. We collected clinical data using a questionnaire adapted from a United States-based study of LC. Participants were recruited within 2 years of SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis. Results: infection and LC at this sample size. However, the quality-of-life dimensions worsened during the post-COVID period. Conclusions: LC prevalence in Peru aligns with global trends, underscoring significant health burdens. Those with LC reported high levels of musculoskeletal and neurological symptoms, highlighting the need for long-term follow-up and larger studies in different geographic settings to dissect the impact of TB comorbidity on LC.

We collected clinical data using a questionnaire adapted from a United States-based study of LC. Participants were recruited within 2 years of SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis. Results: infection and LC at this sample size. However, the quality-of-life dimensions worsened during the post-COVID period. Conclusions: LC prevalence in Peru aligns with global trends, underscoring significant health burdens. Those with LC reported high levels of musculoskeletal and neurological symptoms, highlighting the need for long-term follow-up and larger studies in different geographic settings to dissect the impact of TB comorbidity on LC.
