Neurological symptoms of COVID-19 have to date mainly be described within the trajectory of the infection. However, it is plausible (although far from established) that neurological sequelae from COVID-19 may emerge after the patient has recovered from the primary infection and persist for long periods after recovery. For example, it is not known if an elderly patient who recovers from a severe case of COVID-19 with cognitive dysfunction will suffer persistent cognitive deficits. The long-term burden on both caregivers and the healthcare system that might be posed by COVID-19 survivors with neurological or cognitive impairment may turn out to be very important, although it is one that is rarely discussed, even hypothetically [123,124].
