“New study just dropped: MRI scans of young kids post-COVID show changes in brain structure—even after mild infection. Here’s what the researchers found, how they did it, and why it matters.”
Multimodal MRI analysis of COVID-19 effects on pediatric brain
Even mild Covid changes children’s brains.
“We speculate that viral-triggered neuroinflammation and immune response contribute to neurotoxic damage in brain regions involved in cognitive processing, ultimately resulting in alterations in cortical morphology and glymphatic function.”
