✔️3) The severity of COVID-19 was related to changes in the gut microbiome. Patients with more severe diseases had lower diversity and richness of gut bacteria. Mitsuokella jalaludinii were associated with physical symptoms, stress, anxiety, and depression.

🔔Key findings that validate other studies and provide new data:
✔️1) COVID-19 patients show altered immune responses and neuropsychiatric symptoms. SEVERITY correlates with changes in the GUT MICROBIOME, systemic inflammation, and mental health problems.
