Virologist Evgeny Timakov reported which organs coronavirus infection often affects. Discuss
It is not difficult to guess which organ isthe most common target of COVID-19. This is, of course, about the lungs. The fact is that this organ contains a large number of receptors on which the virus multiplies.
The coronavirus also affects the intestines.Moreover, due to the fact that the virus harms the work of this organ, as well as its microbiota, immunity also weakens, which is important for recovery. The list of organs that are often affected by the coronavirus includes the liver.
Among other things, immunological memory was also vulnerable.
“There is evidence that it works the same as measles,which erases about 20-30 percent of our immunity. Therefore, after a coronavirus infection, a person often begins to get sick, catch new infections, and herpetic diseases, which we had in a latent form, are aggravated, ”Timakov said.
