Covid-19 is a disease that leaves sequelae.

Mayabeque, Cuba: The consequences left by Covid-19 in people who suffer from it were confirmed by several studies that were carried out in the country, investigations that are still continuing, this was the topic of the Round Table on Monday.

The Doctor and specialist of the Pedro Courí Institute, Daniel González Rubio, said: “it is unpredictable to define something, in the convalescent stage the consequence left by any disease are persistent, while the systematic manifestations are almost always due to an anatomical alteration?.

As an example, the fibrosis left by Covid-19 pneumonia. In the case of persistent manifestations, they are alterations that last over time.

The Director of the Institute of Hematology and Immunology, Doctor of Science, Consuelo Marcía Abraham, expressed they have carried out different investigations, one of the best known is the treatment of patients with lung lesions with stem cells, hence they decided to study convalescent patients of the Covid-19.

In this way, she added, it was determined which of the 49b cases studied were and had been left with some complication, the physical and laboratory examinations allowed a comprehensive view of what happens with this disease after receiving medical discharge.

The National Director of Science and Technological Research of the Ministry of Public Health, Dr. Ileana Morales Suárez, clearly ratified a message whose essence had already been addressed by the panelists: Covid-19 leaves sequels.

The Public Health System in Cuba has transcendent challenges and has a strong activity load, but we will always be in terms of achieving a better quality of life, of responding to adverse circumstances like the ones we are experiencing, Morales Suárez argued.
