Almost four years after the first COVID lockdowns began, negative effects are still being confirmed. The Guardian has just reported on a brand new study that found that lockdowns “had lasting impact” on the cognitive health of British adults ages 50 and over. The report by the University of Exeter and King’s College London says subjects’ cognitive function and working memory declined under the horrors of lockdowns. This was because of factors including an increase in loneliness and depression. The lockdown-induced trend continued into 2022.
