Does this worry you?


Catching COVID-19 is said to cause "substantial" drop in INTELLIGENCE in people recovering from the virus according to british research who examined the IQ of over 81000 people across the UK.

13,000 caught the virus and were found to have the largest drop off in intelligence

People recovering from it found problem solving, planning and reasoning more difficult compared to people who never got the virus

And virus survivors who had to be on ventilators lost the equivalent of 7 IQ points

This "brain fog" has already been reported by sufferers for weeks, even months recovering from it and some lost the ability to recall everyday facts or hold a conversation

It sparked fears the disease causes long term cognitive impacts in a similar way to the lasting efects of strokes or microbleeds

The scientists from the UK and the USA published this as they asked respondants various questions to test their mental capacities and those who had covid had a lower cognitive score than they were modelled to have if they not been infected based on age, sex and occupation

People who are hospitalized lose the most IQ points as the the longer the disease takes hold of them, the more of their IQ is dropped and anybody who has long term of the virus will have their IQ damaged severely

Do you think this is true that COVID can cause brain cells being lost?

Was this study conducted before the vaccine? Testing the I.Q. of anti-vaxer is like getting blood from a stone.

antivaxers already can't be reasoned with. They can get even dumber and it won't make a difference, they're already below the threshold of reason

The question is incomprehensible as we are on an internet forum and as such cannot physically see each other meaning even if I managed to accurately guess the number my chances of being right are just that, pure chance rather than a measure of my cognitive abilities.

I wish I could say I always thought like that, it always comes in weird bursts where I can comprehend most things then others I feel like i suddenly woke up and need a moment to remember what i was doing what's going on and what's next, then again maybe that's less a covid thing and more a personal thing as I've always felt like that to a degree all my life but never told anyone because a feeling is not concrete enough to make it something to bother someone with you know? Kinda like that weird noise I hear that nobody else can whenever I'm extremely stressed either through worrying or through a random bout of emotional inner chaos. Like I'd be thinking heard about something then forget what it was i was thinking so hard about anyway, perhaps it's a lack of concentration, perhaps that's just how Im wired, if I knew a way to personally research this more i would but for now I guess I'll settle on doing the usual things I do when I need to readjust my mind a bit, video game music and thinking about this popcorn I like. It's almost 1 am him where I am so I really should be getting to sleep yet not only does anticipation kinda stop that but trying to making that anticipation die down seems to stubbornly making it higher. Anyway thanks for the finger tips that's one less thing spent thinking too much about.

If it gets low enough, do you think the value might underflow and accidentally turn them into geniuses?
