Another New Study Shows That Youngest People Are By Far Hardest Hit By Serious #LongCovid Brain Diseases Such as Memory Loss, Seizures, Movement Disorders, Etc, From 'Mild' Virus
'Younger and middle-age individuals are disproportionally affected' by Long Covid brain diseases 'regardless of acute COVID-19 severity' study shows.
'Younger and middle-age individuals are disproportionally affected' by Long Covid brain diseases 'regardless of acute COVID-19 severity' study shows.
The latest study which is published in the Annals of Neurology journal is just the latest to show that 'mild' Covid is far more severe in younger people than older ones:
This is a consistent finding across multiple studies at this point:

Covid, of course, loves to infect the brain and cause multiple serious ongoing diseases after acute infection:

Further, the study found that younger people reported a much lower quality of life (QoL) as a result of Long Covid diseases:

They note that contrary to the many lies (they say very generously hypothesis ) of 'mild' in young people, the hardest hit by the virus are the youngest people:
'Together, these data refute our initial hypothesis that the burden of Neuro-PASC will be greater for older adults. Our study demonstrates the opposite finding that younger and middle-age...
...patients with Neuro-PASC are more severely affected than older patients, regardless of the severity of their acute COVID-19 and hospitalization status.'

Why are younger people so much harder hit by the 'mild' virus?
The Authors speculate that this is because younger people have a better immune response and as much of the serious disease caused by Covid is actually due to the immune system going into overdrive...

...which again is the exact opposite of the original hypothesis - where younger people and kids were supposed to be 'mildly' affected due to their superior immune systems: of course, you could believe that if you knew nothing about Covid and what it actually does.
