Brain Inflammation From COVID-19 Looks Eerily Similar to That From Alzheimer's

The most comprehensive molecular investigation to date has now uncovered extensive inflammation and degeneration in the brains of those who have died from COVID-19 - even when they didn't report any neurological symptoms in life.

The signs are eerily similar to what we see in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, and yet no matter how hard the authors looked, they couldn't find any trace of the actual virus in the brain tissue.

It's possible the viral matter had already been cleared when these patients died, or it could be that SARS-CoV-2 is fanning the neurological flames from elsewhere in the body.
