Severe COVID Looks Scarily Like Old Age in The Human Brain, Study Finds

(ScienceAlert) Severe COVID-19 looks scarily like old age in the human brain, according to a postmortem analysis of 54 healthy and infected individuals. The authors of the study say their research is the first to link COVID-19 to molecular signatures of brain aging. Researchers also compared their results to an uninfected individual with Alzheimer’s disease and another group of 9 uninfected individuals with a history of hospitalization or ventilator treatment.
