Long Covid research

Al-Aly led work which provided the first systematic characterization of the post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection.[6] He subsequently led work which characterized the increased risks of cardiovascular disease,[7] neurologic disorders,[8] mental health disorders,[9] gastrointestinal disorders,[10] diabetes,[11] dyslipidemia,[12] and kidney disease[13] following SARS-CoV-2 infection. His lab also produced evidence characterizing the effects of COVID-19 vaccines on Long Covid[14] and the health consequences of repeated infections with SARS-CoV-2.[15]
