The impact of ambient temperature and air pollution on SARS-CoV2 infection and post COVID-19 condition in Belgium (2021–2022)
increased the cumulative odds of infection (OR = 1.93; 95% CI:1.67–2.23, OR = 3.53; 95% CI:2.72–4.58, for moderate and extreme cold, respectively), with the strongest associations observed for non- PCC ...

Prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies among Belgian nursing home residents and staff during the primary COVID-19 vaccination campaign.
seroprevalences observed among infection naïve residents. COVID-19 vaccination status and previous SARS-CoV-2 infection were predictors for SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity. Alternatively, age ≥ 80 years old, the presence ...
