At a Glance


  • In a small study, about half of people hospitalized with COVID-19 had antibodies in their blood that could mistakenly attack the body’s own proteins and tissues.

  • More work is needed to see if these autoantibodies contribute to the symptoms of “long COVID,” or have other effects later in life.
