Summary
Beech 40961 had confirmed COVID in March 2022 and from about mid-2023 had difficulty finding words and forgot things, on and off for more than six months. They kept working, sleeping well and exercising four times a week at the gym plus bouldering, walking, cycling and jogging. Quitting caffeine in September 2023 and resuming it in January 2024 made no difference to the word-finding problem.
