简要总结
Longitudinal study of 56 households with at least one member who had COVID-19 to compare the course of illness, immune responses, and long-term consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection in HED patients with those of control subjects of the same age group. Complete households are investigated, including women who are pregnant when exposed to the virus and their newborn child(ren).

结局指标
主要结局
age-dependence of SARS-CoV-2 infection
时间窗: 3 months from the point in time at which the first household member shows symptoms of COVID-19
registry of household members with and without symptoms of COVID-19 (entire households)
percentage of household members infected by SARS-CoV-2
时间窗: 3 months from the point in time at which the first household member shows symptoms of COVID-19
The infection rate is determined on the basis of specific PCR tests and detectibility of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2.
duration of primary COVID-19 symptoms
时间窗: 2 months from the onset of COVID-19 symptoms
The possible association between the length of time with symptoms of COVID-19 and specific immune responses, in particular the development of virus-neutralizing antibodies, is studied.
frequency of postviral fatigue
时间窗: 2-12 months from the onset of COVID-19 symptoms
Patient-reported symptoms of fatigue are registered (questionnaire).
frequency of noticeable temporary hair loss after COVID-19
时间窗: 2-12 months from the onset of COVID-19 symptoms
Patient-reported extent of hair loss is registered (questionnaire).
frequency of late-onset cardiovascular complications
时间窗: 2-12 months from the onset of COVID-19 symptoms
Patient-reported known and yet unknown long-term consequences of COVID-19 are registered and investigated further (questionnaire, specific data confirmed by clinical examination).
