Covid-19 can raise the risk of certain brain and mental disorders, even two years after recovery, according to new research.
Academics at the University of Oxford and the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), found that cases of psychosis, dementia, seizures and ‘brain fog’, were more prevalent in those who had coronavirus than other respiratory infections.
The study showed both the Delta and Omicron variants pose similar risks of developing such neurological and psychiatric disorders.
