Patients with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 may have preexisting neurological conditions or be at elevated risk for them, for example, patients with atrial fibrillation are at risk for stroke. Certain motor neuron diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, may put patients at elevated risk for infection in general. Of particular concern are patients with muscular dystrophies associated with weakness of ventilator muscles or cardiomyopathy who are exposed to COVID-19. In such cases, patients may recover from COVID-19 but not go back to their baseline neuromuscular functioning [70].
