Previous studies have reported a potential occurrence of sleep disorders in patients following a COVID-19 infection. However, these findings were based on surveys or retrospective studies with small sample sizes. This study examined if subjects with a previous COVID-19 infection in 2020 experienced sleep disorders in 2021. Using the 2019-2021 Utah All Payers Claims Database (APCD), adults (≥18 to 62 years old in 2019) covered by private insurance and Medicaid were identified. Sleep disorders were identified from the primary and secondary diagnosis in 2021. Baseline characteristics of subjects such as age, gender, race/ethnicity, type of insurance, and comorbid conditions were identified from the database. Entropy balancing was used to balance the baseline characteristics of subjects with and without a COVID-19 infection in 2020. Weighted logistic regression was used to identify significant factors that were associated with sleep disorders. A total of 413,958 subjects were included in the study. The average (SD) age was 38 (17) years old in 2019 and 58% were female. Among the subjects, about 39% had a COVID-19 infection in 2020. Those who had a COVID-19 infection in 2020 were 53% more likely to have a sleep disorder in 2021 (OR = 1.53; 95% Confidence Interval: 1.48-1.58). Sleep disorders could be one of long-term COVID-19 symptoms. More screening and observations for those who had a COVID-19 infection could be important to improve sleep related problems.

In the post-large era, various COVID-19 sequelae are getting more and more attention to health problems. Although the mortality rate of the COVID-19 infection is now declining, it is often accompanied by new clinical sequelae with different symptoms such as fatigue after infection, loss of smell. The degree of age, gender, virus infection seems to be weakly correlated with clinical symptoms.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic was a significant health risk and resulted in increased sickness absence during the pandemic. This study examines whether a history of COVID-19 infection is associated with a higher risk of subsequent sickness absence.
Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 32,124 public sector employees responded to a survey on COVID-19 infection and lifestyle factors in 2020 and were linked to sickness absence records before (2019) and after (2021-2022) the survey.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the rapid implementation of telemedicine for HIV care at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) in the United States. We sought to understand use of telemedicine (telephone and video) at two FQHCs in Los Angeles, and the client attitudes towards and experiences with telemedicine as part of future HIV care.
Methods: We conducted surveys with 271 people living with HIV (PLHIV), with questions covering sociodemographic factors, telemedicine attitudes and experiences, technological literacy, and access to technological resources and privacy.
