"Brain fog" goes on and gets no less frustrating

My post-Covid "brain fog" goes on.

It is hugely frustrating.

The fluctuating inability to connect up ideas and facts makes the analysis of Covid-19, and criminal liability for the Covid-19 epidemic in the United Kingdom, an excruciatingly slow process.

Things that I would have expected to take a few hours take days or weeks.

Some things just don't get done. They seem beyond my mental capacity at a particular moment in time.

The last few weeks have been particularly frustrating. I know I've been trying to analyse complex issues drawing on facts from diverse sources but I don't feel that that should have been beyond me in the way that has been playing out over the last few weeks.

I just keep plodding on, reading the material that seems to me to be relevant, drafting fragments of thought and, after a potentially interminable delay, putting a document or blog post together in some hopefully coherent form.
