Hoping to avoid a coronavirus infection? Avoid burnout and get good sleep, suggests the findings of a new study.
Study participants were asked several questions about their sleep habits, including daytime napping and severe sleep issues, as well as their work-related burnout levels. By the end, the researchers concluded that each additional 1 hour of sleep resulted in a 12% decreased risk for COVID-19. Meanwhile, those who said they were suffering from work-related burnout every day were nearly 3 times more likely — 2.6 times to be exact — to be infected with COVID-19, battle a coronavirus infection for a longer amount of time, as well as being more likely to have severe COVID-19-related symptoms.More Related News
