Reduced maximal aerobic capacity after COVID-19 in young adult recruits, Switzerland, May 2020

(Reduzierte maximale aerobe Kapazität nach COVID-19 bei jungen erwachsenen Rekruten, Schweiz, Mai 2020)

In March 2020, we observed an outbreak of COVID-19 among a relatively homogenous group of 199 young (median age 21 years; 87% men) Swiss recruits. By comparing physical endurance before and in median 45 days after the outbreak, we found a significant decrease in predicted maximal aerobic capacity in COVID-19 convalescent but not in asymptomatically infected and SARS-CoV-2 naive recruits. This finding might be indicative of lung injury after apparently mild COVID-19 in young adults.
