Neuroimmunology and Neurological Symptoms of COVID-19

Abstract

Wainford Michael

Coronavirus disease is being caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection in 2019 (COVID-19). Other than respiratory symptoms brought on by a bronchoalveolar system attack, COVID-19, among others, may also be accompanied by neurological symptoms brought on by a nerve system affliction. These can be brought on by direct cell-to-cell infection as well as SARS-CoV-2 infiltration of the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). Additionally, tissue damage in the CNS and PNS might result from neurological degeneration brought on by molecular mimicry to virus antigens or bystander activation in the context of immunological anti-virus response. In addition, symptoms connected to the nervous system may result from the cytokine storm brought on by COVID-19's SARS-CoV-2 infection. Vascular occlusion and stroke can result from endotheliitis of the CNS arteries. Additionally, COVID-19 may cause sinus thrombosis and cerebral haemorrhage due to modifications in clotting behaviour. The most effective method of preventing COVID-19 in the neurological system is vaccination. There are therapeutic strategies that can treat symptoms or perhaps reverse nervous system damage caused by COVID-19, some of which are still being researched.
