"These findings provide essential insights into long-term neurological effects of COVID-19 impacting brain function in long COVID and COVID-19 recovered healthy controls"
Another study showing #CovidCausesBrainDamage
Yep, even in people who think they recovered
(Brain, Behavior & Imm., Dec. 2025)
"The CDC [...] has never tweeted the words 'cognitive damage' or 'brain damage' in reference to COVID"
"The current CDC Director, Mandy Cohen, has never tweeted the words 'cognitive damage,' 'brain damage' or 'brain fog.' Neither has former CDC Director Rachelle Walensky"

"Many of us were hoping that children would be less affected. [...] These hopes were dashed by a recent NIH study [...] which reported that “20% of kids (ages 6-11) and 14% of teens met researchers' threshold for long COVID.”

"Brain changes may be more pronounced in individuals with cognitive impairment, marked by blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, elevated brain injury markers & reduced gray matter volume, even 1 year after the infection."

"astrocytes exhibit a unique susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2"
"astrocytic networks coordinate [...] pathogen clearance & tissue repair"
"astrocyte-induced inflammation is broadly implicated [...] in the development of depression"

"An increasing amount of evidence has shown that COVID-19 infection can affect the brain via different mechanisms influencing cognition"
"findings indicate that SARS-CoV-2 might disrupt brain homoeostasis via neuroinflammatory and protein-regulation mechanisms that persist"

"SARS-CoV-2 [&] the resulting long-term neurological complications in patients, known as long COVID [...] may account for[...] persistent & latent/reactivating brain infections & neurodegenerative diseases"

"30% of patients report neuropsychiatric symptoms [incl.] disorientation, dizziness & poor concentration"
"These symptoms can emerge over a broad time frame"
"cognitive decline has been reported to persist for up to three years following infection"
(Imm. Med, Oct 2025)

"SARS-CoV-2-associated neurocognitive disorders (SAND) describe the cognitive impairments, such as memory loss, concentration problems, and decision-making difficulties, commonly reported in Long COVID patients, even after mild acute disease." 38/🧵

"What’s odd about the political climate surrounding forever COVID is that I really don’t see what the counterargument is against the idea that we should stop infecting children with a brain damaging virus"
#ProtectChildrenFromCovid #CovidCausesBrainDamage
Here, MRI scans showed kids' Covid brain volume differences were related to neuropsychiatric symptoms (headache, dizziness, attention & memory deficits) due to chronic, persistent neuroinflammation in the brain

"long-term COVID-19 symptoms include persisting effects of the virus on the brain when the infection is over, possibly even leading to neurodegeneration
"the exact mechanisms of nervous system damage induced by SARS-CoV-2 are still unclear
(Scientific Reports, August 2025)
"Patients had had predominantly mild to moderate infections (87.8%)"
"We found that most patients presented poor cognitive performance [...] mainly in the attentional and executive domains; some also showed memory problems"
(Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology, July 2025)
#CovidCausesBrainDamage
"memory deficit, problems with concentration and difficulty focusing"
"Recent studies have shown that, even months following COVID-19 acute infection, some [...] continue to experience neurological, psychiatric and cognitive symptoms associated with detectable brain changes" #CovidCausesBrainDamage
But why then place it next to the word "over"? Why reinforce their belief that it's over? Why not just say #CovidIsAirborne?
All I'm saying is that negation is counterproductive. Of course we should keep repeating #CovidIsStillEverywhere, #AvoidCovid, #AvoidLongCovid, #CovidCausesBrainDamage etc
"When someone says 'don’t think of an elephant,' you automatically think of an elephant."
Which is why we should stop saying #CovidIsNotOver
Better say #CovidIsStillEverywhere, #CovidIsAirborne
Say #CovidCausesBrainDamage, #CovidHarmsYourHeart
Tell people the truth. Cut the "not" 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
📌 Filing this under #CovidCausesBrainDamage
Also under #CovidCausesHeartDamage
or #CovidHarmsYourHeart, I forget which hashtag I decided I like better
Because I don't like any of these things Covid does
So I #weararespirator in public indoor places, avoid crowds
Hope you #AvoidLongCovid too 😷
"A cognitive or neuropsychiatric [Long COVID] phenotype is identified by symptoms such as brain fog (including poor concentration, memory loss, and difficulty in thinking), insomnia, anxiety, and depression."

"The prefrontal cortex is the part of the brain responsible for decision making, reasoning, personality expression, maintaining social appropriateness, and other complex cognitive behaviors. These young adults’ brains looked like they had aged 20 to 30 years."

"The evidence is clear: COVID damages brains. Damaged brains lead to weird behaviors. Weird behaviors, especially in children, may be misdiagnosed as mental health or behavioral problems.
"COVID may also be linked to poorer performance on tests and other learning tasks"
Absolutely.
