SARS-CoV-2 matter found in brain, but believed immune-mediated
Doctors help - I may be totally misconstruing the basics here.
Per MedPageToday, the Lancet article found
"SARS-CoV-2 -- viral RNA, viral protein, or both -- was detected in brain tissue of more than 50% of patients who died with COVID-19, a post-mortem case series in Germany showed."
BUT
"The neuropathological alterations are most likely to be immune-mediated, and there does not seem to be fulminant virus-induced encephalitis nor direct evidence for SARS-CoV-2-caused central nervous system damage."
SO
Will Leronlimab also cross the blood/brain barrier riding on immune cells that otherwise would be pro-inflammatory?
Worked with doctors, certainly not one.
