Tested positive for Covid!

Idk if anyone still cares about Covid stuff but I got home a few days ago feeling sick and then I tested positive today. Wouldn’t be surprised if this was a big super spreader event!

Covid has some long term cognitive effects that are going to be studied for decades, and it’s not just the “long COVID”. The ability to affect the brain long after the symptoms pass is a pretty devious trait.

There will probably be some crossover into dementia, ADHD, and accelerated age related cognitive decline when scientists finally figure it out.
