It became a matter of political identity. Rejecting Covid, the science, the vaccine, and the reasonable public health measures became more important to them that life itself.
I wonder if the global average IQ went up or down as a result of COVID?
Even mild covid appears to sometimes cause permanent cognitive damage so I doubt it.

Definitely up.
Don't forget that autism anti vaccine movement was fueled by fairly intelligent well educated people who were tricked by one flawed study. We shouldn't assume people are stupid if they're anti vaccines.
Actually, it wasn't a "flawed study", it was an outright fraud. The doctor responsible lost his medical license, but not quickly enough.
After I got the first dose of a covid vaccine, Astra-Zeneca, I posted on Facebook that I had gotten the vaccine and now have the autism. My friend who is autistic replied and said, "You had the autism before you got the vaccine!"
Oh. Right.
I'm Candian so I'm, OG A-Z M P P Omicron PBiV so far. I had the OG Covid back in December 2019 before it got cool and everyone started doing it.
