Olfactory dysfunction but not COVID‐19 severity predicts severity of cognitive sequelae following SARS‐CoV‐2 infection in Amerindian older adults

COVID‐19 has affected more than 380 million people. Infections may result in long term sequelae, including neuropsychiatric symptoms. In older adults COVID‐19 sequelae resemble early Alzheimer’s disease, and may share risk factors and blood biomarkers with it. The Alzheimer’s Association Consortium on Chronic Neuropsychiatric Sequelae of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection (CNS SC2) established harmonized definitions, ascertainment and assessment methodologies to evaluate and longitudinally follow up cohorts of older adults with exposure to COVID‐19. We present one year data in a prospective cohort from Argentina.
