Studies re Long Covid insist on stating the % of people who succumb to this sequelae. I’ve seen incident rates from 3.5% up to 38% (after 3rd infection).

Gray matter thickness may be reduced in specific brain areas after SARS-CoV-2 Omicron infection
Gray matter thickness may be reduced in specific brain areas after SARS-CoV-2 Omicron infection

Study on 61 men MRI scanned pre and post omicron covid. "Decrease in gray matter thickness in the left precuneus and right lateral occipital regions of the brain. Ratio of the right hippocampus volume to total brain volume decreased."

Average age of man in study: 43

SARS-CoV-2 is associated with changes in brain structure in UK Biobank
SARS-CoV-2 is associated with changes in brain structure in UK Biobank

UK researchers scanned the brains of 400 people before and after mild covid, compared them with controls and found:

  1. greater reduction in grey matter thickness
  2. greater reduction in global brain size
  3. greater cognitive decline
  4. greater change to primary olfactory cortex
