Singing Voice Symptomatology Following Presumed SARS-CoV-2 Infection
The impact of continued COVID-19 sequelae on singers’ vocal function has yet to be determined. An online survey of singers who have contracted SARS-CoV-2 infection was designed and administered globally. Participants (n = 1,153) were recruited in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, and Europe. Su...

description | The impact of continued COVID-19 sequelae on singers’ vocal function has yet to be determined. An online survey of singers who have contracted SARS-CoV-2 infection was designed and administered globally. Participants (n = 1,153) were recruited in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, and Europe. Survey questions included demographics, peri- and post-SARS-CoV-2 infection symptoms, and self-reported sequelae attributed to long-COVID. The survey was made available in English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Traditional and Simplified Mandarin Chinese. Data were statistically analyzed to provide a useful summary of the sample and to evaluate associations between long-COVID and singers’ vocal function. We found that age, gender, and vaccination status were not significantly correlated to a change in singing voice in our sample. However, severity of infection was statistically correlated with a change in singing voice. Of the 34 signs and symptoms presented, lingering cough, shortness of breath, and chronic fatigue were significantly correlated with a change in singing voice. These data and their analyses have added to our understanding of this growing population's unique vocal needs, and may inform strategies for singing voice habilitation in COVID-19 survivors. |
