I couldn’t, remember my friend’s, name, who i’ve known for 12 years, burning things and undercooking others and i cook for a living. I started putting my mascara where the toothbrush goes. Covid19 patients around the world have been having unsettling experiences like these, and they could be connected to the long-term effects the novel coronavirus can have on the human brain.
This is a very ingenious virus. We had for a long time thought that this was primarily a respiratory syndrome. We now know that it is a multi-system syndrome. The virus enters the body through a protein called ace2, which is found on the outside of cells throughout the body, including in the brain.
The virus uses ace2 as a gateway to get into the cells, hijacking them to make copies of itself. The novel coronavirus can change a person’s, oxygen level, temperature and blood pressure which can cause delirium a serious condition, causing confusion and a reduction in someone’s.
Awareness of their environment, up to 60 percent of hospitalized coveted patients are reported to have this condition. Delirium is, is typically uh. The brain’s way of saying um that my the body is is not right.

The world health organization says most people who get covid19 recover from it, but researchers say there will likely be those who have long lasting brain related symptoms, humans, plan, humans think about the future in general next week, next month in a year, and we’Re having to think about just each day, because we don’t know what each day is going to bring.
I’m, a shadow of what i was physically and mentally. What we do know about covid19 and the brain is based on incomplete knowledge with researchers saying what they know is constantly evolving thanks for watching global news, if you want to stay up to date on the latest, breaking national and international news be sure to subscribe to Our channel
