Evaluation of thyroid function in patients with coronavirus infection

Abstract

In 2019, the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which caused the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, presented an unprecedented challenge to health systems and the scientific community worldwide. In addition to the severe form of the acute phase of the coronavirus infection and the pulmonary manifestation of the life-threatening disease, as well as its complications, the long-term changes that occur in the post-coronavirus period also affect other systems: endocrine, cardiovascular, nervous and musculoskeletal systems.
