Autoimmunity, COVID-19, Post-COVID19 syndrome and COVID-19 vaccination

Autoimmunity, COVID-19, Post-COVID-19 Syndrome and COVID-19 Vaccination covers all aspects of what is perhaps the most dramatic health crisis in the history of modern medicine. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) raised major concerns about the association between the virus and various autoimmune manifestations. Over 15 distinct autoantibodies and above 10 different autoimmune diseases were found to develop in COVID-19 patients. Moreover, evidence about recovered COVID-19 patients demonstrates that persistent systemic symptoms, which are believed to have an autoimmune-related mechanism, do exist. As it is of great importance to recognize those autoimmune manifestations of COVID-19 and post-COVID-19 syndrome to properly cope with their outcomes in the ongoing pandemic and the long-term post-pandemic period, this book fulfills a vital need in the medical community. Describe the short and long impact of COVID-19 on autoimmunity Provides understanding to the acute and chronic impact of the SARS-CoV-2 Gives insights into the long-term effects of COVID-19 on recovered patients Provides conclusions on the novel terms chronic post-COVID-19 syndrome, post-acute COVID-19 syndrome, and long COVID-19 INDICE: 1. Introduction 2. Cellular and molecular mechanisms in COVID-19 3. Autoantibodies in COVID-19 4. Autoimmune manifestations and diseases in COVID-19 5. Peculiar aspects in COVID-19 6. Chronic post-COVID-19 syndromes
