Study links immune response to long COVID neurological symptoms
Two studies reveal that neurological symptoms associated with long COVID are often caused by the immune system attacking the body's own tissues. Self-antibodies lead to nerve damage and produce symptoms such as fatigue, loss of balance, and increased sensitivity to pain. Experiments have shown that these antibodies can persist for more than two years after the initial infection, raising the possibility of developing new treatments for autoimmune diseases linked to long COVID and prompting warnings about blood donation.
