Scientists may finally know why Covid survivors may be struggling with persistent Long Covid neurological symptoms courtesy a latest study. It has been found that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein lingers in the brain and skull bone marrow for years after infection and may be fueling chronic inflammation and neurodegenerative disease in people who suffered from the infections years back.
Some of the neurological symptoms associated with long Covid are headache, insomnia, vertigo, delirium, PTSD, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, anxiety, brain fog, difficulties in coordination (ataxia), loss of movement (bradykinesia), tremor, or sudden muscle twitching or jerking (myoclonus).
