A new study by the University of Texas Health System suggests that coronavirus affects more than just our lungs. Researchers found more than half of seniors they studied developed cognitive impairment after recovering from the virus. Dr. Gabriel de Erausquin, the lead researcher, says symptoms ranged from forgetfulness to difficulty having conversations. Dr. Erausquin says it's not clear yet whether the impairment is short-term or will remain a persistent problem.
