I have a language question, for people in the know:
I see COVID cognitive impairment primarily discussed in terms of lost IQ points.
I am aware that IQ as a concept is deprecated.
What is a better / less problematic way to frame COVID cognitive impairment that is also effective science communication / public health communications?
I'm sincerely asking and would appreciate good faith replies. Thank you.
