Alzheimer’s Disease

Michael Heneka, MD, University of Bonn, Bonn, Germany, discusses the neurological deficits following COVID-19 infection. Previous data has shown that after the presence of sepsis, there are cases of brain atrophy and cognitive decline. Following COVID-19 infection, there could be similar changes. Currently, the neurological consequences of COVID-19 are being investigated in prospective clinical trials. This interview took place during the Virtual World Congress on Controversies in Neurology (CONy) 2020.
