They also face an increased risk of anxiety and depression, the research suggests, but this subsides within two months of the onset of Covid-19. Over two years the risk is no more likely than after other respiratory infections. The findings are published in the journal Lancet Psychiatry. Nearly 600 million cases of Covid-19 have been recorded worldwide since the start of the pandemic, and there is growing evidence that people who survive the disease face an increased risk of neurological and psychiatric illnesses. Previous studies have shown that people face higher risks of various neurological and mental illnesses in the first six months after infection. Until now, however, there are no large-scale data examining the risks over a longer period of time. The new study, from the University of Oxford and the Oxford Health Biomedical Research Centre, analyzed 1.28 million cases of Covid-19 over two years. Dr Max Take, who led the analyzes at the University of Oxford, said: “The findings shed new light on the long-term mental and brain health consequences for people after being infected with Covid-19. The results have implications for patients and health services and highlight the need for more research to understand why this happens after Covid-19 and what can be done to prevent these disorders from occurring or treat them when they do.” The study analyzed data on 14 neurological and psychiatric diagnoses from electronic health records mostly from the US. It found that in adults the risk of depression or anxiety increased after Covid-19, but returned to the same level as other respiratory infections within about two months.

However, the risk of some other neurological and mental health conditions remained higher after Covid-19 than for other respiratory infections at the end of the two-year follow-up. Adults aged 64 and younger who had Covid-19 had a higher risk of brain fog (640 cases per 10,000 people) compared to those who had other respiratory infections (550 cases per 10,000 people). In people aged 65 and over who had Covid-19, there was a higher incidence of brain fog (1,540 cases per 10,000 people), dementia (450 cases per 10,000 people) and psychotic disorders (85 cases per 10,000 people) compared to those who had previous different respiratory infection (1,230 cases per 10,000 for brain fog, 330 cases per 10,000 for dementia, and 60 cases per 10,000 for psychotic disorder); Results in children showed similarities and differences with adults. The likelihood of most diagnoses after Covid-19 was lower than in adults, and they were no more at risk of anxiety or depression than children who had other respiratory infections. However, like adults, children recovering from Covid-19 were more likely to be diagnosed with certain conditions, including seizures and psychotic disorders. More neurological and psychiatric disorders were seen during the Delta variant wave than with the previous Alpha variant. The Omicron wave was associated with similar neurological and psychiatric risks as Delta. The researchers cautioned that there were some important limitations to consider. The study may under-represent self-diagnosed and asymptomatic Covid-19 cases as they are unlikely to be recorded. It also did not look at the severity or duration of post-Covid-19 conditions and how they compare to other respiratory infections. Professor Paul Harrison, who led the study at the University of Oxford, said: “It is good news that excessive depression and anxiety diagnoses after Covid-19 are short-lived and not seen in children. However, it is worrying that some other disorders, such as dementia and seizures, continue to be more likely to be diagnosed after Covid-19, even two years later.”
