Abstract

Although the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic has ended, its impact on patients with migraine has revealed critical gaps in understanding how migraine interacts with respiratory infections. Exploring this bidirectional relationship is essential for improving migraine management and protecting vulnerable populations during future outbreaks.
