Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to include high-quality works on both the pathophysiological characteristics and complications of SARS-CoV-2 infections during the different phases of the pandemic, with particular emphasis on pandemic risk assessment, the role of predictive and prognostic biomarkers, if there is a link between autoimmunity and long COVID, the role of the gut and lung microbiome, and the role of imaging and artificial intelligence.
