Covid: A Brain Damaging Story
I believe that in the absence of large scale studies and conducting brain imaging on a mass scale, we have to rely upon ourselves to turn to real world examples we may already be witnessing.

Now before we delve deeper into this, I think it would be felicitous to provide a little background first.
MRI brain imaging has previously revealed that Covid reduces the thickness of grey matter within the frontal and temporal lobes.
This would mimic symptoms of FTD.

So to the questions.
I am going to show you a wide spectrum of symptoms which arise from damage to the frontal and temporal lobes. I will be using the NHS’s definition of Frontotemporal Dementia for reference.
Are you noticing one or more of the following in yourself/others?

Since we are at a very early stage in the progression of such damage, these symptoms could be mild/subtle versions of one or more of these, but should not be disregarded, especially if they’re new or worsening.

It should also be noted that damage to this specific area of the brain within the cerebral cortex can cause sociopathic behaviour.
Additionally, this induces the “slow and insidious loss of the capacity for moral rationality.”
Have you noticed anything akin to this?

The final question to ask yourself is how might this manifest itself amongst the general population and what might we start to see? Or are we already seeing it?
Think hard. Because if you yourself have such damage, this won’t be easy to recognise due to “impaired judgement”.

It will be challenging to recognise this happening to yourself because damage to this area of the brain specifically causes decreased self-awareness.
Patients with FTD rarely ever recognise the alterations in themselves, and rely upon others to notice such changes early on.

To be absolutely clear, the damage right now is slight. Many people are only on covid infection number one or two. The damage will be compounded in those with repeated infections.
The progression of such damage can be very slow, so noticing early signs is of paramount importance

As a side note, Alzheimer’s (AD) can take many years to evolve.
Preclinical AD can last for decades and you wouldn’t notice any symptoms during this stage.
I am using AD as an example to show how slow neurological disorders can progress, although progression can be rapid.

Facts are indisputable (so don’t claim otherwise) and they are backed entirely by evidence:
Covid damages the frontal and temporal lobes.
Damage to this region of the brain would mimic/cause symptoms of Frontotemporal Dementia.
Piece that puzzle together.
End.

This is gaining some traction now, but I am always here to answer any questions you may have on this. So don’t hesitate to ask.
I aim to respond to each and every one of you.

I’m sorry if I haven’t got back to all of you yet. Getting through all the replies whilst trying to complete a full days work has taken it out of me.
This on top of the fact I feel like I’ve prophesied the end of civilisation as we know it. I am mentally drained. Need a break.
