Oral steroids on discharge cut risk of long COVID death: study
Patients with the highest levels of CRP a year after hospitalisation for COVID-19 had a 61% higher chance of death, find US researchers

University of Florida researchers reviewed the health records of more than 1200 adults who had been hospitalised with the infection at their health facility in 2020 and 2021.
