News Release 25-Feb-2026 Tulane study reveals key differences in long-term brain effects of COVID-19 and flu Disruption of serotonin and dopamine signaling pathways could explain why some feel 'brain fog' after being infected by COVID-19 Peer-Reviewed Publication Tulane University FacebookXLinkedInWeChatBlueskyMessageWhatsAppEmail Even a mild case of COVID-19 or the flu can impact the body long after the fever and cough fade, according to new Tulane University research that may help explain why some people struggle to feel fully recovered weeks or months later. Tulane researchers found that while both viruses can leave lasting lung damage, only SARS-CoV-2 infection caused persistent brain inflammation and small blood vessel injury, even after the virus was no longer detectable. The findings, published in Frontiers in Immunology, help explain why long COVID often includes neurological symptoms such as brain fog, fatigue and mood changes, while influenza is more commonly associated with respiratory complications.

"Study shows COVID-19 raises risk of 'vascular aging' with stiffer arteries."
COVID-19 doesn’t only affect the lungs. New research shows people who’ve had COVID-19 have stiffer arteries than those never infected, highlighting ongoing cardiovascular risks after infection.
Vaccination didn't eliminate the increased danger posed by a 2nd infection compared to a 1st infection.
The pattern was the same: Reinfection resulted in a higher risk of PASC for all children and adolescents

USA researchers studied 465,717 children and found reinfection doubled the risk of long COVID.
At least 6 million US children may be affected, more than asthma, with symptoms lasting years and no treatment yet.
