This study was designed to evaluate whether severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) can directly target the central nervous system (CNS). We present four patients suffering from the loss of consciousness and seizure during the clinical course of COVID-19 infection. In addition to positive nasopharyngeal swab tests, SARS-CoV-2 has been detected in their cerebrospinal fluid. This report indicates the neuroinvasive potential of SARS-CoV-2, suggesting the ability of this virus to spread from the respiratory tract to the CNS.
本研究旨在评估严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2（SARS-CoV-2）是否能直接靶向中枢神经系统（CNS）。我们报告了4例在新型冠状病毒肺炎（COVID-19）感染临床过程中出现意识丧失和癫痫发作的患者。除鼻咽拭子检测呈阳性外，在他们的脑脊液中也检测到了SARS-CoV-2。本报告表明SARS-CoV-2具有神经侵袭潜力，提示该病毒能够从呼吸道传播至中枢神经系统。
