It'd be funny if the organization behind Mensa decided to re-test everybody on account of the COVID pandemic to ensure that their high standards are maintained and that members who drop below the required IQ for entry get culled accordingly. And of course ditto for those reaching a certain age, we would not want any accidental cases of Alzheimers posing as high IQ individuals now, would we?

You become Mensa member for life, ie. if you have brain injury and your IQ drops to 80, you're still Mensan.

I'd always assumed they were called Mensees.
