I couldn't find where it talks about vaccinated patients in the study you linked.

It's not surprising that covid19 can cause brain damage (and heart damage, and death) to unvaccinated people.

That was listed under "The million dollar questions include"

I'm now realizing formatting / phrasing was unclear.

1. >10% of mild / asymptomatic cases have brain damage.

2. The million dollar question is whether this includes vaccinated cases. Vaccines reduce hospitalizations and deaths by far more than they do mild and asymptomatic cases.

Ah, now I see what you mean. That is worrying. I hope that the rate of mild cases in vaccinated people is lower than the article would lead one to believe. I also hope the protection given is enough to avoid that kind of brain damage.
