In a study involving more than 80,000 people, researchers found that those with more severe COVID-19 symptoms scored lower in an a series of online tests, with performance on reasoning and problem-solving tasks being most affected.

According to the team, the findings further highlight how COVID-19 infection can have lasting, and measurable, impacts on people’s brain function.
