UK researchers find Alzheimer’s-like brain changes in long COVID patients
“New research from the University of Kentucky’s Sanders-Brown Center on Aging shows compelling evidence that the cognitive impairments observed in long COVID patients share striking similarities with those seen in Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.”
Does Long COVID Lead to Alzheimer's? A New Study Took an Unexpected Turn
“More than one in ten people who catch COVID don’t fully recover — developing a chronic condition called Long COVID which causes a variety of debilitating symptoms, including brain fog. Since some studies have found that COVID infections are associated with overall brain shrinkage, altered brain structure, and an increased risk of developing Alzheimer’s, researchers have been investigating the links between COVID and Alzheimer’s.”

COVID's Inflammation Linked to Long-Term Brain Effects - Neuroscience News
“A significant portion of COVID-19 survivors, even those who had mild cases, may experience cognitive decline and difficulty concentrating for extended periods after the infection.”
