> Our study identified altered signal intensity, abnormal tissue microstructure, and imbalanced neurochemicals in long COVID and COVID-19 recovered healthy controls.

So, it seems that it has long lasting effects on everybody. The main difference is how severe are that effects.

> Structural MRI studies have also identified alterations in brain morphology among COVID-RHC, including reductions in grey matter volume, thickness and global brain volume when compared with healthy controls

That is scary.

> Furthermore, long-term follow-up studies are crucial to determine whether the identified brain changes are progressive, stable or dynamic over time.

This is interesting, thou. Is it permanent, it gets worse or better? That makes a big difference and it may also justify further studies and actions.
