- Authors

- Abstract
In the COVID-19 pandemic, direct and indirect effects on mental health have been reported, including neurological, neuropsychiatric, and neuropsychological symptoms with possible long-term effects. Also, it is suspected that in the coming years there could be a worldwide increase in the incidence of neurodegenerative disorders. The objective of this article is to review the most up-to-date information on brain damage associated with COVID-19, as well as the neuropsychiatric symptoms of the disease. The exact mechanisms of brain damage have not yet been clarified, and further longitudinal and international research--including studies that incorporate epidemiological, clinical, and diagnostic variables--is required to define these mechanisms and establish their impact on mental health, as well as their long-term consequences.
