London-Sana
A recent scientific study revealed that people who were infected with the Corona virus and had mild symptoms and did not suffer from any other traditional long-term symptoms could remain vulnerable to deterioration in attention and memory for a period of six to nine months after infection.
The study, conducted by the British University of Oxford, according to what was reported by Reuters today, indicated that after asking participants who had previously tested positive to complete exercises to test their memory and mental abilities, they were significantly worse at remembering personal experiences known as episodic memory for up to six months after They also experienced a greater decline in their ability to maintain attention over time compared to the uninjured, up to nine months after injury.
It is noteworthy that mental problems that affect concentration levels, as well as forgetfulness and fatigue, are long-term features of Corona, a condition that affects some after the initial bout of infection, but the extent of the problems related to attention after infection has not been determined.
