      4) I have been warning about cognitive decline for months. The huge increase in risk of anxiety depression and insomnia of 2x higher risk is no coincidence!! See detailed thread 🧵 below.https://twitter.com/DrEricDing/status/1326038189971288064 …

      BREAKING—20% of recovering #COVID19 patients develop mental illness within 90 days, says large US study. Increased *first-time diagnosis* of anxiety, depression & insomnia by 2-fold! And researchers also found significantly higher risks of dementia. 🧵 https://www.reuters.com/article/health-coronavirus-mental-illness-int-idUSKBN27P35N … pic.twitter.com/b6Bf1w7uw6

      5) What is the increase in psychiatric illness after any #COVID19 diagnosis? Up ⬆️ 58%. That is gigantic. This is after any diagnosis of Covid, not just specifically if LongCOVID—this is an overall increase across the board for infected!https://twitter.com/DrEricDing/status/1326046964656590848 …

      Eric Feigl-Ding added,

      Eric Feigl-DingVerified account @DrEricDing
      6) Well, just how much more likely is one to develop *first-time* psychiatric illness or mood disorders or anxiety after #COVID19 diagnosis? Anywhere from 1.58x for risk of psychiatric illness, to 1.79x for risk of mood disorder, compared to a matched control groups. pic.twitter.com/BPT0xSzxuP

      7) Bottomline— you do not want #COVID19 for yourself or anyone you know. And mass infection is not a valid plan!! 📌”findings show that #COVID19 survivors have significantly higher rates of psychiatric diagnoses” (including first time & recurrent)

      8) If only someone warned about the IQ drop from #COVID19 after recovery back in November 2020… sometimes it sucks that we repeat hard pandemic lessons the hard way — especially that we knew much much earlier. Epidemiologists want to honestly vomit regularly. 🤦🏻‍♂️https://twitter.com/DrEricDing/status/1326294302155214866 …

      15) More worrisome study, cognitive decline in recovered #COVID19 patients was found across severity level—largest among those hospitalized (& also among those not hospitalized). How big decline in hospitalized patients? @AliNouriPhD say **equivalent to -8.5 IQ point drop!!!** https://twitter.com/AliNouriPhD/status/1318967587796099074 … pic.twitter.com/cCsFYOeEZS

      10) We *must must must* now be extra vigilant. There is a lot of studies on waning immunity / vulnerable vaccinated elderly / #DeltaVariant evasiveness — 🇮🇱 is reporting drops in infection efficacy (remember mild COVID still = cognitive deficits), and VE drop for severe too. ⬇️https://twitter.com/DrEricDing/status/1418669720874721283 …

      12) the CDC did get one thing right - with the need for indoor air quality improvements especially for schools. IMHO, this is just as important as masks. We need masks, vaccinations and ventilation/ indoor air quality improvementshttps://twitter.com/DrEricDing/status/1365678603212648461 …

          It would really seem to be a logical conclusion, just milder. Good question. If studies don’t capture,they present as biased it seems.

          In-person for kids 0-11 through early 2022 only provides masks. No vaccine at all. Yet all continue to push. Mental illness and cognitive deficit coupled with multiple organ impacts. Also since Vaxxed can be infected, are organs at risk as well as mental health?

          Kids in "some states" won't be required to wear masks in school. AZ is one of them. And teachers aren't "required" to be vaxxed either. It's disaster on the doorstep.
