Berlin: A new study (research) claims that the coronavirus can enter people’s brains through their nose. With the help of the findings of the study, it will now be possible to find out why ‘Neurological Symptoms’ are emerging in patients during Covid-19 disease and how to treat them.

According to a study published in Nature Neuroscience Magazine, SARS-COV-2 not only affects the respiratory system but also the central nervous system. – Different ‘neurological’ symptoms like sniffing, loss of taste, headache, fatigue, and dizziness, etc. start appearing. Although recent studies have shown the presence of viral ‘RNA’ and ‘cerebrospinal fluid’ in the brain, it is not clear where the virus enters and how it spreads.

Researchers at the University of Charit in Germany tested the respiratory tract (from the upper part of the throat to the nose). The study included 33 patients who died from Covid-19. Among them were 11 women and 22 men. The average age of the dead was 71.6 years, he said. The average time from the appearance of symptoms of Covid-19 to his death has been 31 days. Researchers say they have found SARS-COV-2 RNA (the genetic material of the virus) and proteins in the brain and respiratory tract.
