Covid and Brain Damage
“We are currently watching what I can only describe as the early stages of Frontotemporal Dementia on a mass scale playing out in real time.
The geopolitical ramifications of this are worrisome.
I am in no doubt about what I’m seeing.
The cause?
Ceaseless SARS-CoV-2 infections” A THREAD WITH STUDIES:
“The widespread 🧠 neuro issues I’m witnessing can’t be overstated; a tipping point of previously healthy adults into early Parkinson’s/ GBS/ dementia/ ALS/ serious 👁️ issues/ strokes/ tremors/ vertigo / intractable anosmia & tinnitus etc
An unparalleled horror show & crime.”
“Ugh. The more we learn about it, the uglier it looks.
This, again, speaks to my point about tail risk in an emergent situation: it’s at least as bad as it looks. It may be worse.
We are badly underestimating the consequences of delayed risk. It’s a reckless approach. (1/)”
“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.”
“Can I reassert that with SARS-CoV-2 induced brain damage, it won’t be a lessening of intellect that you’ll be seeing first, but behavioural changes such as disinhibition, emotional lability, risk taking & impulsivity.
Frontal lobe damage impairs behavioural regulation.” Thread:
“An old friend reached out to me today.
He got an MRI showing that his brain aged 25 years. He went for an MRI because his ADHD meds weren’t doing the job and if he went off of them, he felt different, he felt had dementia.
Doc notes that given the facts, it’s Covid induced.”
