COVID-19 might reduce gray matter volume in the brain

05-19-2021, 05:20 PM

We have a section under Articles here specifically for COVID-19 and neurology but there isn't a way to post there so far as I can figure out, and so I'll put this here. A small study found gray matter loss among some people who have COVID-19 and required oxygen therapy. This is from Medical News Today (May 19, 2021):
