Study Shows About 6.6 Million Brain Injury Cases in the U.S. are Linked to COVID-19.
New research, co-published by Washington University School of Medicine and VA St. Louis Hospital in Missouri, shows that people diagnosed with COVID-19 have a higher risk of developing brain damage and neurological-related disorders within a year of infection than uninfected people. Among them, the chance of seizures and memory impairment is the highest.
