The figure is impressive: more than 2.8 million cases of Covid-19 have been confirmed in Switzerland since the start of the pandemic. The disease has a very wide range of symptoms not only affecting the respiratory tract. Neurological symptoms are also common, such as headaches, fatigue, concentration problems and especially the loss of smell. What are the consequences of this infection on the patient’s brain? Researchers from the University of Oxford studied the structure of the brain over several years in Britons, before and following their infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus responsible for Covid-19. Their results were published Monday in the journal Nature.
