Many patients with SARS-CoV‑2 disease suffer from (sometimes) severe neurological concomitants that are prolonged or even irreversible. The virus can cause damage in the brain, but that alone is not it.

he neuropathology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by hyperphosphorylated tau neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) and amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques. Aβ plaques are hypothesized to follow a development sequence starting with diffuse plaques, which evolve into more compact plaques and finally mature into the classic cored plaque type.
