You misunderstand the ambiguous wording. If you study only includes people with an illness, the illness itself is a confounder.

The point is that if you have a non-ICU covid case, this research is unlikely to apply.

It feels like we didn't read the same article, they break down numbers for people on ventilators but also hospitalized, non-ventilator patients all the way down to those who received no particular care.

The findings were concerning to anyone who had it, they also mention cases where the cognitive deficit was the first reported symptom.
