CDC website, Nov 2023: "evidence strongly suggests that even asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 patients might have neuropathologic changes in their brains, which could develop into severe neurologic disorders later in life."

Don't you think that the CDC should be warning the public loud and clear about this?

Please let them know how you feel!

Longer extract in thread below

"our study has value as translational research to predict neuropathologic changes in the early phase of asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection in humans because we have observed the kinetic pathologic changes in the brains of dogs that did not show any neurologic signs"

3/x

"Compared with other animal models, dogs are genetically similar to humans and their brain structures are similar to those of humans, making our extrapolation more reliable."

4/x

"According to our results, the brains of dogs infected with SARS-CoV-2 demonstrate severe BBB disruptions and consequent SVD-like pathologic signs, including axonopathy, glial activation, and potential neurodegenerative changes even without neurologic signs"

"That evidence strongly suggests that even asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 patients might have neuropathologic changes in their brains, which could develop into severe neurologic disorders later in life."

This is real. This is now.

We already know that "All subtypes of dementia, irrespective of patients’ previous dementia types, behaved like rapidly progressive dementia following COVID-19, according to the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease Reports"

This is not simply affecting the elderly

Another example of rapidly progressing parkinsonism post COVID

Thank you @Rpshahmemorial1

@LisaSingerUBC "People who had COVID-19 were 55% more likely to develop epilepsy or seizures over the next six months than people who had influenza. The rate of new cases of epilepsy or seizures was 0.94% in the people who had COVID-19, compared to 0.60% in those who had influenza."
