After recovering from COVID-19, many people experience memory issues and learning difficulties, commonly known as brain fog. A recent study explored the mechanisms behind virus-induced brain fog and potential treatment methods.

In February, researchers from the University of Illinois–Chicago published a study in the journal Brain on the mechanisms of neurological disorders in mice infected with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, along with preliminary treatment methods.
