After casting an open invite for people between the ages of 18 and 60 who previously had a mild case of COVID-19, Romano-Silva and colleagues in the preliminary study tested a group of 130 volunteers comprised mostly of women with a mean age of 38 years

Doesn't look like a balanced test group to me. Do they have any idea what might cause these cognitive deficits? Or is it just wrong self evaluation like this stupid vaccines cause autism study from 1990?

Don't take me wrong, COVID was horrible and all to real, but I don't believe these 1 in 4 people with mild cases have long lasting cognitive deficits bullshit. At least not if it is "proven" with studies like this
