As we continue to learn about the SARS-CoV-2 virus that caused a world pandemic, researchers and those who have contracted COVID-19 are seeing a rise of memory and cognition issues that may be attributed to long Covid.
In fact, two recent studies say that 7 out of 10 long Covid sufferers have memory and concentration problems. The research team noted that 10 to 25 percent of those who contract Covid are at risk of developing long Covid. Among the patients part of the study, 78 reported difficulty concentrating, and 69 percent experienced “brain fog,” about 68 percent suffered from routine forgetfulness, and 60 percent said they struggled to identify words while speaking.
