According to a report published in medical journal Cureus, there’s a possible link between worsening hangovers and Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome (PACS), a.k.a. Long COVID. The article documents a case series of four patients between ages 36 and 60 at Stanford University’s PACS Clinic. According to the report, all four patients had a confirmed history of COVID-19 infection and persistent symptoms that lasted longer than four weeks. While being evaluated for consistent symptoms linked to COVID-19, the patients all claimed to have experienced increased alcohol sensitivity since their diagnoses.
