Looks like red meat intake is further accelerating SARSCoV2-accelerated cognitive decline:

"In this prospective cohort study, we included participants free of dementia at baseline from 2 nationwide cohort studies in the United States: the Nurses' Health Study (NHS) and the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study (HPFS).

Diets were assessed using a validated semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire. We ascertained incident dementia cases from both NHS participants (1980–2023) and HPFS participants (1986–2023). Objective cognitive function was assessed using the Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status (1995–2008) among a subset of NHS participants. Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) was self-reported by NHS participants (2012, 2014) and HPFS participants (2012, 2016).

Cox proportional hazards models, general linear regression, and Poisson regression models were applied to assess the associations between red meat intake and different cognitive outcomes."
