We can go with the hard statistics that standardized tests including MATH dropped because of COVID. Now whether it's because of the virus itself causing cognitive loss, the masks trapping CO2 and lowering blood PH damaging the brains, the stagnant indoor air, or some combination.
Evidence that that the masks cause cognitive loss can no longer be ignored. Anyone that was forced to take a cognitive assessment especially taking the Cogscreen AE in this environment should have the scores tossed because it is a rigged environment on top of a rigged test to fail the test taker.
