After a COVID-19 infection, many people are complaining about lingering symptoms of “brain fog.” It’s that sluggish, fuzzy feeling you get when you can’t think clearly, often felt while you’re sick.

HOUSTON – Imperial College London found that in some severe cases, the coronavirus is linked to substantial cognitive deficits for months. “The severity of the initial presentation of coronavirus infection does not correlate with the development of brain fog," Dr. Francisco said. “In fact, there are many people who complained of brain fog who had very mild symptoms, they thought that they had recovered physically from it and maybe they will still experience some fatigue. However, this brain fog, the confusion and memory problems may last longer.”So the question remains - Will it go away? Dr. Francisco said the most important next step is determining to whom, why and how these complications are happening.
