Lack of Ontario long COVID strategy risks care: ministry documents

TORONTO — Ontario’s lack of a long COVID strategy has led the health sector to cobble together “fragmented” clinics that are at risk of closure and may lead to little to no support for patients, internal Ministry of Health documents warn.Long COVID is not yet well understood, but the current and likely rising volume of patients will have an effect on Ontario’s recovery and may place added pressures on emergency rooms, say the documents obtained under a Freedom of Information request.“Ontario does not have a coordinated approach to care for patients with PCC (Post COVID-19 Condition),” the health ministry’s strategic policy branch wrote last June.“While some providers are responding to the immediate demand for post-COVID care, these offerings are insufficient, fragmented, and unsustainable without dedicated funding.”Between 10 and 20 per cent of people who have had COVID-19 still experience symptoms 12 or more weeks post-infection, the documents note. Researchers estimate 1.4 million Canadians are living with long COVID.

Severe COVID may cause your brain to age faster, study explains why

COVID-19’s effects on gene activity are caused indirectly, by inflammation, rather than by viral infiltration of the brain Three years have passed since we first came to know about COVID-19 and even now, much is unknown about this deadly virus. A new study has revealed that in case, you suffered from severe COVID infection, there is a high chance that your brain is aging faster than usual. The study, which has been published in Nature Aging, points out that gene activity inside the brain is more extensive in people who had severe COVID infections than in uninfected people who had been in an intensive care unit or had been put on ventilators to assist their breathing.

Covid can cause lasting lung damage – 3 ways breathing can suffer

Normal lung function The main function of the lungs is to bring oxygen-rich air into the body and expel carbon dioxide. When air flows into the lungs, it is brought into close proximity with the blood, where oxygen diffuses into the body and carbon dioxide diffuses out. This process, as simple as it sounds, requires an extraordinary coordination of air flow, or ventilation, and blood flow, or perfusion.

NIH report details how severe forms of COVID-19 cause lung failure and death

LOS ANGELES - A recent report from the National Institutes of Health published on May 11 details how severe COVID-19 is unlike most respiratory illnesses and why it can cause lung failure and death. The report cites two NIH-funded studies that were both published in the scientific journal Nature. The NIH says these studies provide some of the most detailed analyses of COVID-19 on the human body. Researchers explained how SARS-CoV-2, the disease that causes COVID-19 "unleashes a devastating series of host events in the lungs prior to death." These "events" include irreparable tissue damage and severe inflammation. In both studies, scientists analyzed tissue samples gathered from COVID-19 patients shortly after their deaths.
