Abstract

COVID-19 pandemic has influenced humans in many ways. In terms of mental health outcomes, many studies across the globe have shown a high prevalence of anxiety and depression among persons suffering from the acute COVID infection and during the post-COVID infection phase. Additionally, studies have also shown a high prevalence of cognitive deficits as part of the long COVID. In this report, we present a 63-year-old male who developed marked cognitive impairment after COVID-19 infection.
