Is it true that SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with an increased risk of dementia?
Unclear. Two analyses of the same large Israeli cohort report that SARS-CoV-2 infection was associated with a modestly increased dementia risk overall, but the association was confined to hospitalized patients and was no longer evident after six months; a separate review only hypothesizes a link to Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. No retrieved item establishes the general claim that infection raises dementia risk across the population.
