What are the consequences of the new coronavirus pneumonia?

People with novel coronavirus pneumonia may experience different sequelae in some people, depending on the severity of the disease and the timeliness of treatment. People infected with novel coronavirus who are asymptomatic or have mild symptoms usually have no sequelae after treatment. However, depending on the individual’s physical condition and whether or not he or she has been vaccinated, some people may have sequelae such as loss of taste and smell, which is particularly common in the population of Omicron, the variant strain of the novel coronavirus. In patients with severe or critical forms of novel coronavirus pneumonia, due to more severe lung damage, or due to untimely assistance, the lungs may become fibrotic in later stages, with severe sequelae such as dyspnea or lung damage. A small number of people will die as a result of lung failure. If the patient has heart, kidney or multiple organ function damage or failure, there will be different degrees of organ insufficiency. The use of large amounts of hormones in treatment can lead to sequelae such as myelosuppression or osteoporosis. For the new coronavirus pneumonia, should be actively prevented, try to avoid infection, go out to wear a mask, do not go to the crowded or infected areas, after returning home to pay attention to timely washing of hands, open the windows to ventilate.
