Study 2: Long-term bone and lung consequences


                           associated with hospital-acquired SARS


               Another study is the 15 years prospective cohort study. They are actually looking at

               the  long-term   bone   and   lung   consequences   associated   with  hospital-acquired
               SARS [2]. However, I'm just focusing on the lung.  Most of the cases will recover

               from the pulmonary interstitial damage and the functional decline caused by SARS,
               with a greater extent of recovery within two years after rehabilitation. So, you could
               dispute the speculation that had been made before for COVID-19 patients. But of

               course, we are not sure what we will face next for the COVID-19 recovered patients.
