Russian Doctor: COVID-19 Causes Baldness

A past coronavirus infection can contribute to premature baldness. This was announced to TASS by Tatiana Ruzhnetsova, Deputy Director for Clinical Work of the Moscow Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology of Rospotrebnadzor, BTA reported.

Ruzhentsova noted that if the infection is severe, it affects various organs and systems, after which a long recovery period is needed.

"In mild illness, in many cases patients seek medical help late, sometimes completely without treatment. This can lead to the development of postcovid syndrome. As a rule, the more severe the disease, the longer and more severe the symptoms of the post-covid syndrome," she said.
