Brain Fog, Fatigue & The Unfinished Fight Against Long COVID

Long COVID remains one of the biggest medical mysteries of our time, affecting millions worldwide—but how much do we really know about it? In this episode of Paul Talks Science, Dr. Igor J. Koralnik, Chief of Neuro-infectious Disease at Northwestern University, shares insights from his pioneering research on the neurological manifestations of long COVID. With over 2,800 patients seen at his clinic and international collaborations spanning Nigeria, Colombia, and India, Dr. Koralnik unpacks the real-world impact of brain fog, fatigue, and cognitive dysfunction. We discuss the global disparities in diagnosis and treatment, the challenges of studying a condition with no clear endpoint, and what the future holds for long COVID research. 🔎 Why is long COVID underdiagnosed in lower-income countries? 🧠 How does cognitive rehabilitation help patients regain their quality of life? 🌍 What can global health systems learn from ongoing studies? This conversation builds on my recent Devex article, ⁠Fatigue and Fog: Navigating Nigeria’s Long COVID Crisis⁠, where I explored how long COVID is affecting lives in Nigeria and the urgent need for better diagnosis and care.
