ImpactHigh impact
The majority perceive this research as significant, influencing public health awareness and individual treatment decisions.
Abstract in brief
The study found that individuals with untreated ADHD are at a higher risk of contracting Covid-19, whereas those receiving medication for ADHD do not have an increased risk.
Researchers analyzed health records of over 14,000 people tested for Covid-19 and discovered that untreated ADHD was associated with a roughly 61% higher chance of testing positive, but ADHD medication seemed to reduce this risk.
The findings suggest that ADHD itself may make people more vulnerable to Covid-19 infection, but proper treatment with medication can help lower this risk.]
Here's a fascinating, foundational paper: "ADHD as a Risk Factor for Infection with COVID-19."
Could change our understanding of so many things, on so many levels! 1/

@IntuitiveKind2 Two things. First, ADHD has been recognized as a pre-existing condition of COVID-19. Lastly, POST-VAC(cine) SYNDROME after COVID-19 vaccination, HAS VERY SIMILAR SYMPTOMS to LONG COVID.

@CRaktajino https://t.co/pIBkfbc0pj i was feeling similarly but there seems to be quite a bit of evidence suggesting that people with ADHD, especially unmedicated ppl, are at a higher risk of infection: https://t.co/pIBkfbc0pj
@pqpolitics @adriandix Amazing advocacy by @petequily at CBC “Our Shot” Town Hall ... asking about consideration being given to untreated #ADHD (vs treated) possibly being a increased risk factor for SARS-CoV-2 @DrBonnieHenry has not seen the study https://t.co/QnNDu3a5c0 #bcpoli @adriandix #COVID19BC
“Social Distancing may be an attention demanding task” ... Study shows UNTREATED #ADHD may increase risk for transmission for SARS-CoV-2. People who took medication for ADHD were not at an increased risk. https://t.co/QnNDu3a5c0 #bcpoli #COVID19BC @pqpolitics @adriandix

@StephenGJung @gizellie ADHD is a developmental disability, per the CDC: https://t.co/pGcDJmhPJm People with ADHD also seem to be at higher risk for contracting COVID, esp when off meds https://t.co/roiacwDH8t
Did you see this research study?
ADHD as a Risk Factor for Infection With Covid-19
The good news is that when ADHD is treated, the increased #COVID19 risk factor goes back to normal.
Another good reason to take your (or your child’s) #ADHD seriously. https://t.co/Nw8dw3YkKt
8-page study on why ADHD is a risk factor for Covid. None of the factors will surprise those of us who have ADHD; even so, it feels kind of good to see it all in print and official-like. #NeurodiverseSquad #ADHD #COVID19
