    There is going to be an obvious bias here because a good fraction of those people will be anti-maskers, anti-handwashers, anti-vaxxers, ... basically mentally defective to begin with.

    I don't see how you can account for this. It would be unethical to give a random sample of people Covid-19, and measure the cognitive abilities before and after.
