Has anyone heard of covid reducing a person's emotional intelligence?

My mother has had covid 3 times now. Only 2 vaccinations and no masking. Each infection she started getting more and more disoriented every time we spoke over the phone. She also has chronic fatigue now. But also she seems to be losing her ability to empathize. It went from confusion over why people feel a certain way, to now not understanding why her actions hurt others.

@Cheesealicious I could swear that there was a study published in Nature sometime in 2022 that basically said, that covid can hit the empathy part of the brain. But I can't find it anymore :(
(But it def would explain more n more heartless politics&people in the recent years)
