Two new high-profile studies add to the increasingly worrisome picture of how even mild cases of COVID-19 can have detrimental effects on brain health.

From the article:

“…two new studies published in the New England Journal of Medicine shed further light on the profound toll of COVID-19 on cognitive health.” And in other studies cases “with mild to moderate COVID-19 showed significant prolonged inflammation of the brain and changes that are commensurate with seven years of brain aging.”
