A new study has found shrinkage in several brain areas like the limbic cortex, hippocampus & temporal lobe post covid infection. Even in very mild cases. These regions are mainly responsible for smell/taste, memory & emotion. This is the first study to compare pre and post covid brain scans.
Could this be the reason for the high rate of post-viral/long covid symptoms? Is this kind of brain shrinkage found following any other kind of infection?
