“If you’re not noticing the (obvious) cognitive impairment in practically everyone around you, it may be due to your own cognitive decline.
Or denial is rearing its ugly head once again.
Perhaps it’s easier for me considering my background, but honestly, it’s so bloody palpable.”
“GreyBut what every single one of these studies fail to mention is that the reduction in grey matter occurs in 100% of individuals"
A thread with studies:
It’s not “empathy burnout.” It’s Covid brain damage. From neuropathologist: “Covid damages the frontal lobe of the brain.
Many areas of the frontal lobe are essential to the execution of empathy.
Most people are on their 3rd/4th+ infection/s already.
But it’s ‘empathy burnout”’
At least they’re recognising the loss of function I suppose. Many can’t.”
“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:
“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.”
A 43% increase cognitive disabilities since 2019.
“This is tragic and horrifying. And it’s going to get progressively worse as we’re all systematically reinfected.”
“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.”
“None of the 'lockdowns aged teen brains' media articles mention:
- The study did not control for covid infection in a population where
- to QUOTE THE STUDY 'covid-19 was widespread'
- 100s of study show the covid virus infects the brain Off-the-scale journalistic malpractice”
“Today, @CNN, @UW decided to publish a story on a study purposefully designed to produce lies funded by @JeffBezos with the intention of lying to the public to convince them that schools closing for a few weeks in 2020 caused changes in the brains of children.”
