The discussion around brain injuries in contact sports has become increasingly prevalent, with growing concerns about the long-term effects of concussions and repetitive head trauma. However, recent research suggests that media coverage may sometimes exaggerate these risks, leading to heightened public anxiety.

As the world continues to uncover the long-term effects of COVID-19, one area of growing concern is the impact on brain health. For those who have experienced long-COVID symptoms, the overlap with symptoms of brain injury is striking—issues such as memory loss, cognitive impairment, fatigue, and mood changes are increasingly common. At The Supported Living Group, we aim to shed light on these potential links to help families, caregivers, and survivors of brain injury understand and navigate this complex topic.
