People who had recovered from COVID-19, including those no longer reporting symptoms,
exhibited significant cognitive deficits versus controls when controlling for age, gender, education level, income, racial-ethnic group, pre-existing medical disorders, tiredness, depression and anxiety. The
deficits were of substantial effect size for people who had been hospitalised (N = 192), but also for non-hospitalised cases who had biological confirmation of COVID-19 infection (N = 326). Analysing markers of
premorbid intelligence did not support these differences being present prior to infection. Finer grained analysis of performance across sub-tests
supported the hypothesis that COVID-19 has a multi-domain impact on human cognition.

To me a sign of being credible is the willingness to retract someone one has published when proven wrong.No one is perfect, no journal never makes a mistake.
