Elsevier established a free COVID-19 resource centre in January 2020, offering English and Mandarin information on the virus. The centre is hosted on Elsevier Connect, and the company grants permission for free access to its research in PubMed Central and other repositories for unrestricted reuse. A study published in The Lancet analyzed the long-term health effects of 1733 patients discharged from Wuhan's Jin Yin-tan Hospital after contracting COVID-19. The study found that 68% of patients reported at least one symptom six months post-infection, with fatigue, muscle weakness, and sleep difficulties being the most common. Anxiety and depression were reported by 23% of patients. Patients with more severe illness during hospitalization had higher rates of pulmonary diffusion impairment and abnormal chest imaging. The study also noted a decline in neutralizing antibody levels, raising concerns about potential re-infection. The research highlights the need for long-term follow-up and intervention for patients with severe illness. The study was funded by several Chinese government and academic institutions. The findings emphasize the importance of post-discharge care for severe cases and the need for further research to understand the full spectrum of long-term health consequences of COVID-19.Elsevier established a free COVID-19 resource centre in January 2020, offering English and Mandarin information on the virus.
