Hospitals across states are increasingly reporting aspergillosis in patients who have recently recovered from long Covid-19 infection and have low immunity and comorbidities like diabetes.
“Patients who have recovered from long Covid are reporting back with breathlessness and high-grade fever, which is not going even with regular antibiotic treatment,” said Vivek Nangia, principal director (pulmonology) at Max Hospital Saket. “It is usually occurring in patients with diabetes and low immunity.”
