   There is now evidence emerging for changes to people's brains after Covid, even non-severe or long Covid cases:
Brain changes after COVID revealed by imaging (nature.com)

SARS-CoV-2 is associated with changes in brain structure in UK Biobank | Nature

PM me if you want to read either and there is a paywall, the top article is the most readable unless you're a neurologist.

I think it's too early to get worried if you have had Covid and considering the number of cases we've had we'll know a lot more soon. The above I don't think takes into account Covid after vaccine, either. Many unknowns still.

PS If you are worried I daresay we could do a study and find drinking alcohol or watching daytime TV has a far bigger effect!

	A near infographic on the new omicron strain https://twitter.com/jburnmurdoch/status/1504497732039413765?s=21 Also, absolutely shocking to see the cases and death rates in Hong Kong now.

	Just come back from 16 days in the UK. Spent 10 days self isolating after testing positive on Day 4. Probably picked up in a rugby clubhouse. Total misread by me. What an idiot. All the indicators show plunging cases and no restrictions in Wales. Yet very quickly on arrival we found multiple cases within family and friends ( non linked). All thankfully mild cases. How did I miss that after 2 years of navigating the pandemic. How to be that naive. Like I said. Idiot. Our equation is different to others a bit as I couldn’t afford my wife and children to test positive when travelling back and school starting, so it was 10 days of Netflix and work. Didn’t get to see the extended family, kids or grandkids I’m summary a total self ordained $**tshow.

	Easily done, Wil. So many rules across different jurisdictions.

	To that end, South Africa has seen cases triple over the last 10 days. No new variant.

	I had covid thanks to Mrs. Reesy about 6 months ago and she got it again about 3-4 weeks ago and I didn’t get it! Weird isn’t it. I have a chronic incurable lung condition who has been on an oxygen concentrator for the last 8 months or so on exercise, so a bit worried without getting neurotic but it’s really odd how some get covid and some don’t! 🤔 Edited by reesytheexile - 25 April 2022 at 11:26pm

	Some people at my work testing positive 3-4 times in the space of 6 months. Very strange
