A new study with 74,000 people shows that COVID infection leads to more other illnesses like bacterial and flu infections. Repeated COVID infections tend to be milder but increase the risk of long-term issues like memory problems, brain fog, and trouble exercising. This matches findings from other studies.
New study of 74,000 participants found:
-those infected with COVID had more other infections (including bacterial, influenza & mycoplasma infections)
-COVID reinfections had milder acute-phase symptoms but led to higher rate & severity of #LongCovid

Multiple COVID infections increased the risk of #LongCovid symptoms, including major ones like memory decline, brain fog, and inability to exercise.
This is in line with @patientled's reinfections study finding the same thing. 2/
