How many? This is a disease with millions of cases. Tell me the article has at least some numbers. Can't read it due to paywall. I'm expecting "reports" and anecdotes. Any disease that impacts the body will show a great range of effects. If the case reports is not in the 5 or six digits we are really talking about a rare. Not many. Everything can be "many" with case numbers this high.

  Nothing. Anecdotes and individual hand picked stories. You can get hallucinations from smoking pot or a heat stroke. Pure manufacturing of societal fear. I don't mind reporting on this, but this is click bait. It should say "in rare cases or unknown cases this happens". Not "many".

    This looks like more than anecdotes and individual hand picked stories to me: > Reports from hospitals and researchers suggest that about two-thirds to three-quarters of coronavirus patients in I.C.U.’s have experienced it in various ways. TFA cites the following for the two-thirds[1] and three-quarters[2] figures: [1] https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2008597 https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2008597 [2] https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.31.20118679v1.full.pdf https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.31.20118679v...

      I wouldn’t waste your time. OP admits themselves that they had already made up their mind about the content of an article they couldn’t even view. They’re not arguing in good faith.

        Not two thirds of corona virus patients! One study is named Neurologic Features in Severe SARS-CoV-2 Infection. Severe! The other is named irium Incidence, Duration and Severity in Critically Ill Patients with COVID-19. Critically ill! So we talking about critically ill patients. Within the US that's rare. Simple numbers. When you say two thirds, make it clear what two thirds you are actually talking about. Leaving out half of the context will make anything look scary. That is why people on the street say you might be asymptomatic but you get brain damage. Which is BS. First you have to be critically ill from covid19. With all treatment side effects and everything. So no, your asymptomatic friend is not having hallucinations. Pure click bait.
