Nervous system‐related tropism of SARS‐CoV‐2 and autoimmunity in COVID‐19 infection
European Journal of Immunology, Volume 54, Issue 1, January 2024.This review summarizes the current knowledge regarding neurotropism and emerging immune responses in SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. There are direct and indirect effects on the nervous system by SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. Presently, vaccination against SARS‐CoV‐2 is the most effective way of preventing SARS‐CoV‐2 infection of the nervous system. Abstract The effects
