I've worked with COVID patients who I literally thought had baseline dementia based upon their cognition, come to find out they were fully functioning and working some pretty cognitively demanding jobs pre-infection. Sustained periods of hypoxia that have a knack for being asymptomatic for a long period with COVID are no joke as far as the brain is concerned
You can be fairly hypoxic without having any real symptoms until you exert yourself. I doubt someone with an O2 saturation of 90% would even notice.

The study is interesting in that it’s not really possible to tell if covid made people more stupid or if stupid people were more likely to get covid.
275 of the subjects studied were evaluated pre and post covid.
"Although a small subset of 275 participants completed the intelligence test both before and after contracting COVID-19, the study mostly employed a cross-sectional methodology"
Probably not a large enough cohort to make strong conclusions from, but interesting nonetheless.
Noted declines in cognition do not necessarily have anything to do with brain hypoxia. The impact of inflammation on the brain is well accepted, and the magnitude of inflammation that covid can generate is impressive.

There were some of those covid long hollers that had to give up their jobs due to cognitive impairments. I remember watching a video where a girl with a phD in some type of AI design had to flat out quit her job because she couldn't do it anymore. I honestly think the previous pres took a meaningful longterm hit to his cognition and sanity after he got covid too. Those psychiatric sequelae can be serious, and it's easy to be subclinical and not get noticed. It's not unreasonable to expect a large number of people to be impaired enough to shift a population curve.

Are they worse off than the last wave? Do you have any sense of how the demographic and presentation have changed?

I switched jobs recently and where I'm at there is plenty of "COVID staff" to manage what they have; I am working in the Trauma-Surgical ICU.
It's mostly a mix of the indigent and the ignorant, is my understanding.
If you died from COVID a year ago, it was a tragedy.
Today, it's an absurdity- in most cases.

Fully vaccinated new Orleans woman dies of covid.
Damn she must weight about 300 lbs.

""She said 'I know I do not have COVID. I still can smell and taste. And I am vaccinated.' But when she got to the hospital, turns out she had it," said Tara Mosley, Angelle's mom."
What an absurdity lmao

So far there are about 500 fully vaccinated deaths it will only climb higher.

Pretty clear now this wave is going to be a lot worse for Florida than previous waves. Banning mask and vaccine mandates has worked really well for them. Like a third world country.

Wow 500 out of 650,000.
That is amazing data. Probably the most effective medical intervention I’ve ever seen.

If only these vaccine makers would have released efficacy data or some way to know that a certain percentage would not be fully protected by the vaccines...

wow! It looks like the rate of increase is spiking on top of cases spiking. Can't wait to see the smear ads during DeSantis' next run.

it really is impressive. I'm hoping some of these mRNA vaccines work as well for other illnesses.
