Long COVID is a heterogeneous, multi-system disease that poses challenges for patients, health systems, and economies. Two papers in Cell and Cell Reports Medicine from independent groups suggest that autoantibodies in a subset of long COVID patients can directly drive symptoms such as pain, fatigue, or neurocognitive problems.
