Irina Petrache, MD, co-led a study at National Jewish Health to better understand why some people continue to suffer life-altering symptoms of COVID-19 months after contracting the virus. Through extensive testing, researchers found that the virus actually alters cell function in these patients, a discovery they hope will lead to treatments.
