The New York Times (3/22, A1, Belluck) reports some physicians have reported cases of “psychotic symptoms emerging weeks after coronavirus infection in some people with no previous mental illness.” Physicians “say such symptoms may be one manifestation of brain-related aftereffects of Covid-19.” The New York Times adds, “Along with more common issues like brain fog, memory loss and neurological problems, ‘new onset’ psychosis may result from an immune response, vascular issues or inflammation from the disease process, experts hypothesize.”
