“Let’s talk about COVID, brain damage & society.

Specifically, what happens when a neurotropic virus repeatedly infects the population, targeting the frontal lobe & almost nobody talks about the consequences?

This thread is for the skeptics.

I’m a neurologist, stay with me 🧵”

“Long COVID can injure the brain - and persistent autoimmunity could be a major driver. A study links persistent AT1 receptor autoantibodies (AT1-AA) with neuroaxonal injury and cognitive symptoms. Here’s what it means🧵”

“Crying reading young ppl in TikTok comments discover in real time that they have brain damage from past covid infections. No one’s ever told them that it’s connected and they’re panicking because they’ve had Covid so many times. So heartbroken and angry that we’ve let this happen”

Worse, most people don’t even notice it has happened to themselves.

“Worse, most people don’t even notice it has happened to themselves.

But I can tell you we who continue to mask and have many fewer COVID infections can see the growing cognitive damage in more and more people around us.

Memory problems, like recall and word finding delays. Weakness and fatigue and motor control impairment. Growing executive function and emotional regulation deficits.

More and more friends disables and forced out of work or school by Long COVID symptoms.

It’s scary to witness the broad societal decline, and dispiriting to see so many governments and Public Health agencies persist in minimizing the growing problem.”

Advanced brain fMRI showed low glutathione : r/covidlonghaulers
Advanced brain fMRI showed low glutathione : r/covidlonghaulers

“Hey all. I thought I would just throw this out there. I had an advanced brain fMRI that was able to show a bunch of brain biomarkers. The only significant finding was that I had low brain glutathione. I was at .56 mM and the normal range is 1-2 mM. He told me this is a large deficiency.

He said this would usually indicate CFS, brain fog, and low energy.”
