People who have recovered from COVID19 are more likely to score lower on intelligence tests, new research has found

COVID-19: US 'going in the wrong direction' on coronavirus as cases almost triple, Dr Anthony Fauci says

However, the scientists behind the study urged caution in drawing conclusions without brain imaging data but said the results should act as a"clarion call" for further research into the issue. "For example, previous studies in hospitalised patients with respiratory disease not only demonstrate objective and subjective cognitive deficits but suggest these remain for some at 5-year follow-up."

"The large and socioeconomically diverse nature of the cohort enabled us to include many potentially confounding variables in our analysis, which goes some way to mitigating the possibility that observed differences were present prior to illness," the study said.

“Only 275 participants completed the intelligence test both before and after contracting COVID. This limits the ability to draw firm conclusions about cause and effect”………pointless article then. More scaremongering.

People who believe your bullshit have also been found to have a lower level of intelligence new research finds.

😶😶😶😶😶

😭😭

Nonsense

I'll agree with that 😂

If the sample is those who've been infected, you can predict the original sample itself is skewered towards those with lower intelligence to begin with. Might not be the virus, not necessarily positively correlated.

Asi la gente despues de tener covi

Eye got de ingecton an defoe loosing sum smarties 🤫

Ok, now i get it 🤭

Ayve hud COVID19 an ayve bin fiyne 🤞🏻

🙄😂

Even after reading the article, much more testing is needed to determine the truth in 'Covid Fog'

What that means for literally everything? So people r less intelligent after covid? That will cause some grave problems. Start to serve them? Everything is time bended. Lower IQ longer the nature of solving problems. Those who r just pushing buttons may not notice the difference.

“more likely to score lower on intelligence tests” 💀😂

They weren't smart to begin with ...

COVID19 has infected their brain cells as well?

Ah this makes sense now with boris 😉

Lack of oxygen will do that to you. Y’know, from your lungs being destroyed by an easily preventable virus that millions of people think is better than the cure.

Is there a competition for fearmongering?

Sky news love to chat shit don’t they kmt

😂😂😂😂
