I’m not posting much here, but I’d like to point out that it is tweets like this that exaggerate study findings. Stat shouldn’t do this. This study design cannot measure impact of COVID on cognition. Rather it compares cognition in those with and without COVID/symptoms with no baseline measure.

A new study on long Covid looks at how much cognition is impaired in the months after a coronavirus infection and shows that Covid-19’s impact can be measured in the equivalent of IQ points.
