'When COVID-19 first reared its head back in 2019, it brought with it a slew of
strange symptoms beyond just respiratory problems. One of the most puzzling
symptoms in those early days was something called "brain fog" — cognitive
issues like confusion, forgetfulness, and trouble focusing.
And while other symptoms have changed as the virus mutated, brain fog is still
a common complaint of COVID sufferers not only during the initial illness, but
extending for months or even years afterwards. Several recent studies have been
trying to understand exactly what this virus is doing to our brains — and how
to stop it.
Dr. Ziyad Al-Aly, the chief of research and development at the VA St. Louis
Health Care System, spoke with
Quirks & Quarks host Bob McDonald about what
he's seeing in his research on COVID and the brain. Here is part of their
conversation.'
