I thought long haulers were over inflammed, yet (correct me if I am wrong) the wording of OP and what you state is saying there is no more inflammation whatsoever happening in regard to these two cytokines specifically.
So I guess perhaps there is an over expression in other ones?

Perhaps. I did a simple search for systemic lupus and covid immunity. I found data that suggested people with active lupus have superior immunity and less progression than people who are not currently flaring. I am not a doctor. I have sle however, and I found covid was an extremely minor cold for me that lasted a few days. In another study it showed lupus patients have poor results with vaccines and immunity. It is very interesting that they're finding association with elevated Anti double stranded DNA and increased immunity. Thank you for your comments. It is interesting.
