Study finds Long COVID brain fog can persist up to 2 years.
analytics database of almost 1.3 million people diagnosed with COVID between January 2020 and April 2022 who were matched with an equal number of people who had another respiratory infection. Most of the records were of patients in the US, but also included data from Australia, the UK, and several other countries. Both cohorts comprised children, adults, and older adults, with females accounting for almost 58% in both groups.
The analysis confirmed previous findings that many of the disorders were more common in COVID patients six months after their diagnosis than among patients who had another respiratory condition. In contrast, risks of cognitive deficit, commonly referred to as 'brain fog', dementia, psychotic disorders, and epilepsy or seizures remained higher for those in the COVID group throughout the two-year follow-up period.Results in children showed similarities and differences to adults.
The authors note several limitations in their investigation, including uncertainty over how severe or long-lasting disorders could be, or when they began.
