       Yale study links some long COVID patients to autoimmune
       responses
       May 28, 2026
       A new study co-led by Yale scientists reveals that antibodies
       from some long COVID patients attacked brain and nerve tissues,
       a finding that could point toward treatments.
       "...team of researchers report strong evidence that, in at least
       a subset of people with long COVID, the body’s immune system
       launches an autoimmune attack against the patient’s own cells,
       causing a cascade of symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog,
       weakness, and other hallmarks of the condition. Autoimmune
       disorders occur when the body’s immune system attacks its own
       tissues...
       ...autoantibodies frequently targeted tissues involved in pain
       signaling, memory, balance, sensory processing, and autonomic
       nervous system control, they found, which could help explain
       long COVID symptoms such as brain fog, dizziness, headaches,
       fatigue, burning pain, and numbness...
       ...antibodies that, when transferred to mice, caused the same
       type of symptoms that are reported by long COVID patients,...”
