Severe COVID-19 or flu raises risk of lung cancer, even years
later, U.Va. research finds
March 12, 2026
Patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19 have an increased
risk of developing lung cancer months or years later, according
to new research from the University of Virginia.
U.Va. School of Medicine researcher Jie Sun and his colleagues
found serious viral infections “reprogrammed” immune cells in
the lungs to facilitate the growth of cancer tumors, even years
later.
