Yes... I agree with you.

I think yes, the quarantine and isolation lets you recall events that happened decades ago , and the memories that pass our pages of our lives are sad and happy ones

Research suggests that virus gains access to the brain via the olfactory bulb, hence loss of smell is a symptom.

Notably olfactory bulb sends information about smell to be further processed in amygdala, orbitofrontal cortex and the hippocampus – which play a major role in emotion, learning and memory.

I agree with your opinion...Congcrats...

Because COVID-19 involves a massive release of inflammatory signals, the impact of this disease on memory is particularly interesting to me. That is because there are both short-term effects on cognition (delirium), and the potential for long-lasting changes in memory, attention and cognition. There is also an increased risk for cognitive decline and dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, during aging.

The potential connection between COVID-19 and persistent effects on memory are based on observations of other illnesses. For example, many patients who recover from heart attack or bypass surgery report lasting cognitive deficits that become exaggerated during aging.

Another major illness with a similar cognitive complications is sepsis – multi-organ dysfunction triggered by inflammation. In animal models of these diseases, we also see impairments of memory, and changes in neuroimmune and neuronal function that persist weeks and months after illness.

peacefulness and quietness has been taken away from the world's population and it is replaced by conflict. it is a bitter reality and it is not clear how and when would be finished.

Thank you very much Itishree for the interesting debate. And all the specialists.

I take the courage to add a "review" regarding the relationship between COVID-19 and physical exercise, without knowledge of the subject, to know its scientific rigor.

It is based on the consensus regarding the negative psychological impact of quarantine, associated with economic difficulties, insufficient information, stress, anxiety, depression, among other problems (Brooks et al., 2020; Altena et al., 2020). These damages would be more relevant in a situation of physical inactivity, which causes loss of muscle mass and decreased strength, in addition to chronic diseases (Mera, 2020). It is claimed to be one of the causes of at least 35 chronic diseases (Marquez Arabia, 2020). These include acute respiratory distress syndrome, which affects between 3% and 17% of all patients with COVID-19 (Zhen et al., 2020). Did he want to ask him to what extent can the physical exercise - respecting the protocol appropriately - diminish the risk of contagion COVID-19?

Thank you all so much.

Greetings

Muchas gracias Itishree por el interesante debate. Y a todos los especialistas.

Me tomo el atrevimiento de sumar una “reseña” respecto a la relación entre COVID-19 y ejercicio físico, sin conocimiento del tema, para conocer su rigor científico.

Se parte del consenso respecto al impacto psicológico negativo de la cuarentena, asociado a dificultades económicas, insuficiente información, estrés, ansiedad, depresión, entre otros malestares (Brooks et al., 2020; Altena et al., 2020). Estos perjuicios serían más relevantes en una situación de inactividad física, que provoca pérdida de masa muscular y disminución de la fuerza, además de aparición de enfermedades crónicas (Mera, 2020). Se afirma como una de las causas de al menos 35 enfermedades crónicas (Marquez Arabia, 2020). Entre ellas el síndrome de dificultad respiratoria aguda, que afecta entre el 3% y el 17% de todos los pacientes con COVID-19 (Zhen et al., 2020). Quería preguntarle en qué medida el ejercicio físico –respetando el protocolo adecuadamente–, puede disminuir el riesgo de contagio COVID-19?

Muchas gracias a todos.

Saludos

We are facing mandatory vaccination or voluntary vaccination of at least half of the world population (depending on how desperate they'll demand a solution, i.e. a vaccine). But one may expect that stricter measures and/or a more lethal virus mutation will be introduced over the coming weeks and months, so that people will be happy to be relieved from their suffering and get back to normal life at the end of the year (the vaccine will of course sterilise them and their children).

Human beings misperceive, misremember, and makeup memories. The reasons, which all existed in the “before times,” are only made worse by the many stresses of Covid-19 and the politicization, conspiracy theories, and fake news the pandemic has generated. One might falsely recall, for example, that Covid-19 is only dangerous for old people. Of course, none of those things is true, but for some, they may be ingrained memories.

Here’s why recollections tend to go wrong, each of them often working in concert with others.

1. Encoding errors and misremembering.

2. Negative emotions and the power of suggestion can distort memories.

3. Fake news makes the distortion worse.

4. Your beliefs inform your memories.

5. Extrapolating from the gist.

6. Our future thinking could be colored by how we remember the pandemic.

Yes of course

Yes... I agree with you.

Yes... I agree with you.The loss of routine also means more mental energy is spent on determining what each day will consist of. For those who still need to go into work, routines may look a lot different. And there's the added mental strain of remembering to socially distance, wear masks and avoid touching surfaces. All of that can contribute to a sense of disorientation.

Yes! Neurophysical and cognitive functioning are correlated and affect each other.

Itishree Padhi

I agree completely with your opinion

Interesting discussion

Great case study .... congrats

Yes, it can be.

Thank you very much for participating Md. Abdur Razzak Choudhury Rosyid Althaf Diena Dwidienawati

Thank you very much for joining in the discussion Maged Gumaan Bin-Saad Hassan Izzeddin Sarsak

Thank a lot Hekmatullah Aziz Zeki and Sadanand, Aziz

Dear @Itishree Padhi To my opinion, only medical experts can demystify the association of the pandemic with our memories.

Thanks!

Yes. But we should also understand that the change is permanent. We will get back to normalcy@itishree

Thank you M. K. Loganathan Arbind K. Choudhary

Yes they are interwoven in most of the cases

I think the discussion will lead to several inquisitive impressions from various researchers from all walks of life. There is seriously a negative repercussion such as impairment in cognitive ability in people. The memory of some people is getting foggy so scientists have quoted it as 'brain fog'. I think mental health has taken a toll where there might be a disturbance in neurotransmitters or excess free radicals has accumulated in the CNS due to stress at the same time no physical work. The synaptic transmission has definitely weakened. To second my thoughts, please find a link attached.
