Gut Microbiome May Influence COVID-19 Severity and Immune Response

The gut #microbiome may influence the severity of #COVID19 as well as the magnitude of the immune system response to the infection, suggests new study.

Imbalances in the make-up of the microbiome may also be implicated in persisting inflammatory symptoms, dubbed “long COVID,” the findings suggest.

COVID-19 is primarily a respiratory illness, but the evidence suggests that the gut may also have a role.
