Research says in the report that this study confirms that the Kovid 19 pandemic is having a bad effect on the brain. It has also claimed that people who have been cured of corona virus infection or who do not have any of the symptoms now, are harming the functioning of the brain.

The Hampshire team analyzed the results of 84,285 people. These people have completed a study called the Great British Intelligence Test. Its results are yet to be reviewed by some experts. These were published online on the MedRxiv website.
