"Many of Covid’s earliest and most alarming effects involve the brain,
including a lost sense of smell, sluggish thinking, headaches, delirium and
strokes. More than four years after the pandemic began, researchers are
recognizing the profound impacts Covid can have on brain health, as millions of
survivors suffer from persistent issues such as brain fog, depression and
cognitive slowing, all of which hinder their ability to work and otherwise
function. Scientists now worry that these symptoms may be early indicators of a
coming surge in dementia and other mental conditions, prolonging the pandemic’s
societal, economic and health burden."
