(1) Background: To report and analyze the presence of residual symptoms after SARS-CoV-2 infection among Polish patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) treated with different disease-modifying therapies (DMTs).

(2) Methods: The study included 426 individuals with MS treated with DMTs and confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection from 12 Polish MS centers. The data were collected through to 31 May 2021. The information included demographics, specific MS characteristics, course of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and residual (general and neurological) symptoms lasting more than four and 12 weeks after the initial infection. The results were obtained using maximum likelihood estimates for odds ratio and logistic regression. (3) Results: A total of 44.84% patients with MS reported symptoms lasting between four and 12 weeks after the initial infection; 24.41% people had symptoms that resolved up to 12 weeks, and 20.42% patients had symptoms that lasted over 12 weeks. The most common symptoms were: fatigue, disturbance of concentration, attention, and memory, cognitive complaints, and headache. None of the DMTs were predisposed to the development of residual symptoms after the initial infection. A total of 11.97% of patients had relapse three months prior or after SARS-CoV-2 infection. (4) Conclusion: Almost half of individuals with MS treated with different DMTs had residual symptoms after SARS-CoV-2 infection. None of the DMTs raised the probability of developing post-acute COVID symptoms.Agata CzarnowskaKatarzyna Kapica-TopczewskaOlga ZajkowskaMonika Adamczyk-SowaKatarzyna Kubicka-BączykNatalia NiedzielaPaweł WarmusAlicja Kalinowska-ŁyszczarzKarolina KaniaAgnieszka SłowikMarcin WnukMonika MaronaKlaudia NowakHalina Bartosik-PsujekBeata LechAdam PerencMałgorzata PopielMarta Kucharska-LipowskaMonika ChorążyJoanna TarasiukAnna MirończukJan KochanowiczAnetta Lasek-BalPrzemysław PuzKatarzyna MaciejowskaSławomir WawrzyniakAnna Niezgodzińska-MaciejekAnna Pokryszko-DraganEwa GruszkaSławomir BudrewiczMarta BiałekJacek ZwiernikAnna MichałowskaKrzysztof NosekBeata ZwiernikBożena LewańczykWaldemar BrolaAlina KułakowskaMDPI AGarticlemultiple sclerosisCOVID-19SARS-CoV-2disease modifying therapiesresidual symptomsMedicineRENJournal of Clinical Medicine, Vol 10, Iss 5225, p 5225 (2021)
