Buffy the Psych ProfHoly shit: COVID may cause the formation of Lewy bodies đłđł
EaterOfSnacks@DrPsyBuffy Pretty sure I first read about that in 2020. It's taking a looong time to percolate.
kira :3@eaterofsnacks @DrPsyBuffy i absolutely remember reading about covid brain damage in 2020, it's incredible how we've known everything we have ever needed to know since literally summer of 2020 and all the time since then has been watching it play out (while substantiated evidence pours out in the form of studies, statistics, and anecdotal observation)
@chrisisgr8 @DrPsyBuffy It's a real devil's fruit salad, isn't it? -- neurological, circulatory, respiratory, immunological damage, possible stepping stone to all sorts of exciting conditions/events. From what I've read much of this has at least been suspected for good long while.
ThĂ© Kraken@DrPsyBuffy I donât mean to be annoying but do you maybe have any links for the studies done here I would love to read the data? If not I will look myself and share !
Callisto@Octofanboi @DrPsyBuffy ... there are a lot of studies linked in the article, and the bibliographies link to more.
@callisto @DrPsyBuffy ahhh yeah sorry I thought those red words were not all studies cause the first couple werenât lol

DoomsdaysCW@DrPsyBuffy Ugh. My aunt suffered from Lewy body dementia. This news does not bode well...
⥠@DrPsyBuffy months ago I was telling friends I was worried that covid maybe was similar to a prion disease because of this case study where someone developed CJD after a covid infection. I sincerely hope this is wrong....

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease after COVID-19: infection-induced prion protein misfolding? A case report
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare, fatal disease presenting with rapidly progressive neurological deficits caused by the accumulation of a misfolded form (PrPSc) of prion protein (PrPc). Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a primarily respiratory ...

@smitten @DrPsyBuffy aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa nightmare fuel
i so don't want COVID, i will fight anyone who tries to get me to take my respirator off

Clifton RoystonEven worse. (And if you read the case study closely, it mentions 4 other known cases of sCJD after Covid-19.)
Virginia S. O'Possum@DrPsyBuffy Oooooh, fuck. Fuck this fucking virus.
Charlie, you may want to take a look at this one. This looks very bad.
"The research suggests that SARS-CoV-2 can cause normal proteins to abnormally misfold." "Alarmingly, two studies [...] corroborate the findings in the Nature articles, recording signs of dream-enactment sleep disorder among one-third of patients after being infected with COVID-19. Over 80% of patients with dream-enactment sleep disorder go on to develop a Parkinson's-like disease within two decades."
