Cover Story: We report on characteristics and lung function outcomes among lung transplant recipients (LTRs) after COVID-19 with infections occurring in the first year of the coronavirus pandemic prior to the introduction of the vaccines. A majority of LTRs in the current cohort did not experience an alteration in the trajectory of FEV1 evolution after developing SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, in the patients with moderate COVID-19, most patients had a decline in the FEV1 that was present after 1 month after recovery and did not improve or even deteriorated further after 12 months. In LTRs, COVID-19 can have long-lasting effects on pulmonary function. Treatment strategies that influence this trajectory are needed. View this paper
