Brain Infections Global: Neurological Associations of COVID-19: Guillain-Barré syndrome following COVID-19 and its vaccines – casual coincidence?
The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by SARS-CoV-2, is of a scale not seen since the 1918 influenza pandemic. Although the predominant clinical presentation is with respiratory disease, neurological manifestations are frequent.

We will also have a brief literature digest from @Neuropsychcovid
