Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection has been shown to be associated with a range of neurological complications during the acute and postacute phases.The pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2-associated CNS disease is complex and diverse, and cannot be explained by one sole mechanism.To understand the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2-associated CNS disease, it is important to gain deeper insights into the neuroinvasiveness, neurotropism, and neurovirulence of SARS-CoV-2. It is also imperative to consider the kinetics, since a viral infection is not a static event.
