Omicron: symptom which affects the way you think could be tell-tale sign

It can be difficult to spot the tell-tale signs of the new variant as they can be different from what we have been told about Covid so far. According to research, one of the tell-tale signs includes changes in how you think.

One of the tell-tale Omicron symptoms among these is brain fog. This symptom has been previously linked to long Covid, with many reporting struggles with thinking clear even months after battling the virus.

Brain fog describes how an individual feels when their thinking is sluggish, fuzzy and not sharp, explains the Harvard Medical School.

Covid seems to affect various parts of our body including our brains and other organ systems, shares Dr Andrew E. Budson. He describes that damage to the lungs, heart, kidneys or other organs and the accompanying symptoms can impair your thinking, leaving you with brain fog.

Unlike with long Covid, Omicron seems to be causing this symptom right from the beginning of the infection, Express reported.

Bangor University is currently studying the link between long Covid and the brain-affecting symptom. An article from the university said: “Decisions as seemingly simple as having tea or coffee to drink can throw some individuals, while others can have difficulties with short or long-term memory.

“The loss of functional ability has major consequences for people who are affected, their families and the wider economy, given people’s difficulty in returning to work.”
