The effects of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)infection persist months and years after recovery.We conducted an online survey to assess the health condition of convalescents approxi-mately 5 months following the primary infection of SARS-CoV-2.The study recruited 5,510 individuals who were primary infected,626 participants who had experienced reinfection,and 521 participants who were with-out infective history.The most common disorders after the primary infection group were fatigue(15.18%),memory issue(13.13%),post-exertional malaise(PEM,11.68%),and brain fog(11.29%)at the time of sur-vey.In addition,SARS-CoV-2 infection had an impact on the reproductive systems.In stepwise logistic regres-sion analysis,smoking currently,with background diseases,and outpatient visits in the acute phase could be associated with moderate/severe disorders.Further analysis of different background diseases showed that allergic rhinitis,hyperlipidemia,cardiovascular disease,autoimmune diseases,neurological diseases,and asthma likely increased the risk of moderate/severe disorders.The probability of developing disorders of indi-viduals with SARS-CoV-2 reinfection was higher before the secondary infection than uninfected people.Fatigue,PEM,muscle pain/spasms,chills,joint pain,excessive sweating at rest,headache/dizziness,sore throat or foreign body sensation in the throat,cough,expectoration,dry/painful/watery eyes,loss of appetite and constipation were associated with an increased risk of reinfection.It was essential to undertake further research with enhanced randomization in a larger sample in the community,and to strengthen the validation of the research conclusions.The findings of this study contribute to a deeper understanding of the health recov-ery process among coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)convalescents.Moreover,the findings help identify characteristic health risk factors associated with convalescents and highlight the risk of moderate/severe dis-orders and reinfection.Furthermore,the findings also provide valuable guidance and reference for SARS-CoV-2 rehabilitation strategies and the prevention of reinfection,offering insights for scientific recommendations.
