Any references or background to this?
It's weird because there are major media campaigns to encourage people to have a flu jab (UK) and "flu causes [irreversible] cognitive dysfunction" would be a major 'seller'.
I can also see that governments could have been reluctant to spread such information - if it's true - as it would change attitudes to schooling; schools being known to be a major vector for spreading flu.
- orwin 5y agoWell, sorry, i said "for sure" because i was hit by the flu october 2019, and my recovery left me weaker to other respiratory diseases (first time asthma) and caused me balances issue for a year. But ancdata is not data, so i'm sorry. Let's say chickenpox, West Nile? Btw, i did not say "irreversible". I did lost a summer of training, probably because of the flu, and this is irreversible, but i'm pretty sure my balance is OK now (i had asthma 3 weeks ago, so the respiratory sytsem damage is not repaired however)
