Summary
After catching COVID in June 2021, they described long COVID with brain fog. A first Moderna shot in December 2021 was followed by dizziness from day four that cleared after about two weeks. Ginkgo biloba taken for a month was followed by brain fog improving week by week, and by February 2022 they said things were getting better, with sport and 9000 feet of walking a day.
