By the mid-twenties, the cracks in the cognitive foundations become evident to one looking back, but of course they were invisible to those who brains had been hammered with repeated infections. First one variant, then another, and then yet another took its turn replicating inside the delicate networks of neurons that had given self-awareness to Homo sapiens, reversing two hundred thousand years of evolution with astonishing speed.

#NoToBrainInfections

@edsuom I work in a very intellect-intensive environment and have been at the same company for several years. Colleagues who were pretty sharp are now as dull as a shovel. You can literally tell who has had COVID multiple times by the quality of their output.
@windrunner I have seen this too. Formerly sharp colleagues who struggle to complete a thought and can’t retain any new information for longer than a few hours.

@andymoose @windrunner The comments in this Reddit thread back up what both of you are saying. It’s not a Covid-related subreddit, either.

People, just wear an #N95 and say #NoToBrainInfections

@andymoose @windrunner I've been noticing this with sports announcers, especially in hockey.
