Emerging research highlights a connection between COVID-19 and significant neurological effects in young brains.

LONDON — Nia Haughton, 15, occasionally struggles to find the right words, and her memory can be patchy, but as she describes her lengthy treatment in a London hospital as she sits on a low wall beside her home, her account still has the power to shock.

I don't know which was scarier, her being on the ventilator not being able to breathe, or the fact that she came out of it with a completely different personality. After repeated, violent seizures that left her exhausted and sleeping for long periods, she was taken back into the ICU.

This is horrifying.

Pay attention People. This just isn’t a cut and dry virus. This is dangerous and life altering.

PANDASPPN NEPANSPANDAS PANSlife sound a bit like PANS and PANDAS? Potential research opportunity and continue to normalize infections and treatment?

nevbav My daughter had hallucinations during Covid & she wasn't even sick enough to be hospitalized. People were in the backyard shining lasers in her eyes, ringing the doorbell and knocking on the door then disappearing. Now, almost 3 months after recovering, she still gets brain fog.

Not if ERs start plasmaferisis early clean blood

She was likely drugged! A lot of that going around since Dark Money has taken over America!!!

Yet the 'stable genius' says Covid-19 isn't harmful to children.

Fear mongering fake news

The cure is out there but Ward let her daughter get so sick she had to go on a ventilator. Great job mom and you wonder why she ended up with a different personality ? It's because you did seek a cure that would of helped. I'd be supper angry with you.

Even scarier.......Joe Biden as president

Just mention going back to school and here it starts.

Oh my now.

joncoopertweets Parents who feel it is time for their children to go back to school should read this article, think carefully, and hold their children tight.

And? This is a good thing.

hydroxychloriquineworks

joncoopertweets Scary

Yeah whatever...

jomareewade My son was in a medically induced coma for a week. He woke up a very different person.

Conclusion Chloroquine is effective in preventing the spread of SARS CoV in cell culture. Favorable inhibition of virus spread was observed when the cells were either treated with chloroquine prior to or after SARS CoV infection.

Many who go on a ventilator die, those who survive likely will face ongoing breathing problems caused by either the machine or the damage done by the virus. the longer people are on ventilation, the more likely they are to suffer complications related to machine-assisted breathin

It'll be years before we have a complete understanding of this virus.

Well that's end of the world terrifying 😳

She tested negative for both the virus and antibodies.

'significant neurological effects'... No damage but maybe some change. Wish I knew more about the area affected. I'm not sure this is a bad thing. I'm thinking about the new studies of autism as a step in evolution.

😨😱

Yeah, its called trauma and brain damage.

😭

theEconomist:

Queue fear mongering story. In California 0 kids have died of covid under the age of 17. Media continues to push 1 in a million stories to instill fear.

The 'zombie' virus?

Oh awesome, let's force them to go to in-person school to increase their chances of being reduced to vegetables with the skills of a 3 year old.

Zoom in on any type of tragedy, and you’ll find the News trying to make it seem like it’s everywhere, all the time! Everybody knows what your agenda has been, and still is. It’s making ya’ll look really dumb! A pointless zit, zoomed in on, at the right moment, is devastating.

It sure will. By not opening schools up. You're dumbing down the already dumbed down education in today's education system.

It really is the zombie apocalypse. It's just that instead of zombies we have trumptards.

But, you know, it's TOTALLY safe to open schools, or something.

🤔

It’s the walking dead now... Covid turns people into zombies... I read the news in 5 different languages daily and read nothing vaguely similar anywhere else...

Same parents teach their kids between left brain and right brain thinking.

Omg, sweetie! 😱💔💔💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Thank God she’s still here, but look at the price! This disease is destroying lives, terrifying and traumatizing survivors and killing by the thousands. I hope she finds path to healing that gets her support she needs.

No that would be from watching NBC News

I’ll bet in 2 sec cnn,cbs and abc will come out w same exact story.

Definitely a life changing experience

Lol,Our Govenor tried that 2 weeks ago 😂😂😂😂😂😂

dhellingkc Like we really need to blame a virus for brain deficiencies in blacks.

Way to prolong the panic. Anything to get rid of Trump i guess.

But let’s open schools. Sure.

And yet they are sending kids back to school. No big deal, almost 3000 kids in my building. I'm sure this won't happen there. OmahaPubSchool GovRicketts

Remember, Benghazi was a big deal because information was allegedly ignored and was said to have caused under 10 deaths. Covid is hitting 150k people in US. How long will the COVID hearings last? Benghazi turnedtables

“Soon after her arrival there with several recognizable COVID-19 symptoms...” Did she actually test positive, or did everyone just assume it was C19?
