Abstract The effectiveness of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines against the long-term COVID-19 symptoms expressed by a substantial proportion patients is not well understood. We determined whether vaccination with BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine was associated incidence reporting post-SARS-CoV-2 infection. invited individuals PCR-tested for SARS-CoV-2 infection at participating hospitals between March 2020 and November 2021 to fill an online questionnaire that included information about...
Abstract Background Long COVID is a post-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection characterised by not recovering for several weeks or months following the episode. The effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines against long-term symptoms well understood. We determined whether vaccination was associated with incidence reporting post-SARS-CoV-2 Methods invited individuals who were PCR tested SARS-CoV-2 at participating hospitals between March 2020-November 2021 to fill...
COVID19 vaccination coverage in Israel varies among population groups. Comparing crude between groups is misleading because of different age structures and socio-economic differences. To describe inequalities vaccine initiation we analysed the interaction terms dose 1 coverage.We calculated cumulative age-specific first by group (Ultra-Orthodox Jewish, Arab, General Jewish). We relative differences within each group, population, using ANOVA binomial regression after adjusting for...
The impact of individual symptoms reported post-COVID-19 on subjective well-being (SWB) is unknown. We described associations between SWB and selected following SARS-CoV-2 infection. analysed well being from 2295 participants (of which 576 reporting previous infection) in an ongoing longitudinal cohort study taking place Israel. estimated changes associated with at three follow-up time points (3-6, 6-12 12-18 months post among infection, adjusted for key demographic variables, using linear...
Objectives: The long-term impact of COVID-19 on health inequalities is under-researched. We investigated changes in health-related following SARS-CoV-2 infection between the Jewish majority and Arab/Druze minority Israel. Methods: Patients with a positive RT-PCR test processed from one Northern-Israeli government hospitals 03/2021 05/2022 were invited to participate. collected socio-demographic, COVID-19-related, quality life (HRQoL) information using validated questionnaire. compared pre-...
Abstract Background In Israel, COVID19 vaccination coverage varies widely by population group and age. Despite the vaccine being locally freely available in entire country. Comparing crude between localities groups is misleading because of differing age structures different groups. order to describe inequalities initiation we determined differences age-specific dose 1 main characterised influence on within each these Methods We obtained daily doses administered municipality from Ministry...

Abstract We determined whether COVID-19 vaccination was associated with Quality of Life (QoL) changes among individuals previously infected SARS-CoV-2 in Israel. Using a validated questionnaire, we collected information about socio-demographics, infection, and QoL (using the EQ-5D-5L tool) 3–18 months post-infection adults tested for by polymerase chain reaction Northern Israel between March 2020-June 2022. compared post-COVID those vaccinated against at time infection not, using an adjusted...
