How COVID Sped Up Our Brains’ Aging!

International Research Awards How COVID Sped Up Our Brains’ Aging! Emerging research reveals a startling truth: COVID-19 doesn't just impact the lungs—it may accelerate brain aging. Even mild cases have been linked to memory loss, decreased cognitive performance, and changes in brain structure, especially in regions tied to attention and emotional regulation. Long COVID symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating mimic those seen in decades-older individuals, suggesting the virus may speed up neurological aging. Scientists are racing to understand how inflammation, vascular damage, and immune responses triggered by the virus contribute to this silent cognitive toll. 🌍 Visit Our Website : researchawards.net ✉️ Contact Us : contact@researchawards.net
