LOS ANGELES - A recent study from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that among more than 3,000 non-hospitalized COVID-19 patients who suffered mild forms of the disease, two-thirds ended up being diagnosed with a new health condition up to five months after contracting the novel coronavirus.

In a study published on April 23, the CDC looked at 3,171 adult COVID-19 patients who did not require hospitalization. They found that 69% had one or more outpatient hospital visits between 28-180 days after initially falling ill with the virus.

The CDC noted that more than one-third of the patients required a new specialist visit. Specialist visits included gynecology, urology, orthopedic and general surgery.
