Let’s talk about COVID, brain damage & society.
Specifically, what happens when a neurotropic virus repeatedly infects the population, targeting the frontal lobe & almost nobody talks about the consequences?
This thread is for the skeptics.
I’m a neurologist, stay with me 🧵

@Daithiunjabbed Studies that show SARS-CoV-2 causes disease:

@Daithiunjabbed Want a one-paper silver bullet that isolates, characterises & causes disease in one neat package?
That’s not how real science works. But you wouldn’t know this, being intellectually challenged.
It happens cumulatively, across multiple rigorous studies, all of which now exist.

@JN1171 The problem?
Our data systems weren’t built to track a slow, mass cognitive shift.
But the behavioural signal is there; clear, global, and exactly what you’d expect from repeat frontal lobe injury.

@SnoopDougieDoig What stands out is the sudden acceleration in things like youth violence, attention deficits, and empathy decline after the mass global spread of brain damaging SARS-CoV-2.
If phones were the root cause, we’d expect a more gradual, linear trend. Not this sharp, post 2020 curve.

@Kristy718028917 High spike antibody levels in the vaccinated = strong immune response.
That’s not the same as viral replication, tissue damage, or CNS invasion like actual covid causes.
Conflating immune signal with pathology is how misinformation spreads.

@cfd4441 @EmilyPetro22 If by ‘pushing that trash’ you mean correcting misinformation with evidence, then yes, I’m guilty. Sue me.
Sorry that facts feel like a personal attack.
Maybe sit with that.

@Kristy718028917 The spike from the vax is transient, localised, and degraded quickly.
SARS-CoV-2 infection, not vaccination, is strongly linked to lasting neurological damage, including direct invasion, inflammation, microclots & hypoxia.

@Kristy718028917 Comparing vaccine effects to viral brain injury ignores critical differences in mechanism & severity.
Spreading false equivalences like this fuels misinformation and fear rather than science-based understanding.

@rusty_ricochet The virus causes documented, widespread neurological harm.
The vaccine does not replicate, does not contain nucleocapsid protein, and has nowhere near the same pathological footprint.
You’re blaming the seatbelt for the car crash. And it’s f*cking tiresome.

@EvalEvan66 And as for “it’s not relevant in 2025”, the virus is still spreading, still crossing the blood-brain barrier, and still triggering neuroinflammation.
What’s changed is the willful ignorance.

@kristy_warrior @Kristy718028917 Most biodistribution data show spike production is transient, mostly in muscle & lymph nodes, and cleared fast.
Unlike the live virus, which replicates, crosses the BBB, causes inflammation, cell damage, and brain shrinkage.
This is boring now. Blocked.

@AJonSchultz @GVDBossche @VigilantFox The evidence overwhelmingly supports mRNA vaccine safety and efficacy.
Healthy skepticism is good, but it has to be based on data, not vibes, nor on farming for engagement.

Frontal lobe dysfunction shatters critical thinking.
That’s how you go from understanding public health to believing vaccines are more dangerous than the virus, every expert is lying, & your YouTube search counts as research.
Thank you for providing very convincing case studies

@AnnieMcnei41751 Persistent anosmia has been linked to increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s & Alzheimer’s.
Brain imaging shows structural loss in areas tied to memory, emotion, and executive function.

Thank you for your work and for flagging the omission, a terrible oversight on my part.
My apologies.

@jamesrcole If you can’t grasp basic scientific concepts like probability versus determinism, maybe stop wasting time debating and educate yourself first.
This isn’t difficult, it’s fundamental to critical thinking.

@TepperHerb2025 In contrast, SARS-CoV-2 infection has extensive evidence of brain injury: grey matter loss (Douaud et al., 2022), neuroinvasion (Matschke et al., 2020), and long term neuropsychiatric effects.
Vaccination reduces these risks, your talking points ignore this entirely.

@ClareQ12 It’s plausible the virus had neuroinvasive properties, contributing to long term brain effects in survivors & possibly influencing post pandemic societal and health impacts.
@GG2763048772993 Long term, difficulties in forming healthy relationships, increased susceptibility to misinformation, challenges in educational achievement & greater risk for behavioral disorders. Early FL disruption may also predispose to mental health issues and diminished societal cohesion.
@NeurologistMom @DaniBeckman Those thousands of images are SARS-CoV-2 related. And when searching for appropriate ones for threads and Twitter posts, I’m clearly sometimes not selecting the correct screenshot/images. That’s my fault.
As I say, I’ve apologised.
Surely you saw I’ve since credited?
