Cosmic LibrarianCDC: 13% of kids who died from flu this year had brain damage
Today in Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, researchers from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) say that 13% of children who have died from seasonal flu this season had influenza-associated encephalopathy or encephalitis (IAE), a severe neurologic complication.

#UK- Bovine spongiform encephalopathy {#BSE, type C} - Immediate notification, #WOAH: https://wahis.woah.org/#/in-review/5667
Isolated, single case of classical bovine spongiform #encephalopathy (BSE) has been confirmed in a 7½- year- old indigenous #cow on a beef suckler #farm. The cow close to calving, had lost condition over the last two weeks and became recumbent and aggressive prior to being found dead.
NonilexHis brain was sent to a #Veterans Affairs laboratory in Boston that is known for its pioneering work documenting chronic #traumatic #encephalopathy, or #CTE, in athletes.
Acc/to the lab’s report, prepared on Feb 26 & updated on Wednesday, the white matter that forms the wiring deep in the #brain had “moderately severe” damage, & in some areas was missing entirely.

Post-COVID cognitive deficits
“Persistent cognitive deficits even in those without clinical neurological complications. When compared to norm age-matched data, these deficits were equivalent in magnitude to ageing from 50 to 70 years of age (1). This study indicated cognitive deficits were associated with the severity of the initial infective insult, post-acute mental health status, and a history of #COVID-19 associated #Encephalopathy, with strong concordance between sub and obj deficits”
Post-COVID cognitive deficits at one year are global and associated with elevated brain injury markers and grey matter volume reduction: national prospective study
The spectrum, pathophysiology, and recovery trajectory of persistent post-COVID-19 cognitive deficits are unknown, limiting our ability to develop prevention and treatment strategies. We report the one-year cognitive, serum biomarker, and neuroimaging findings from a prospective, national long...
