Are you saying influenza and common cold also break down the blood brain barrier? Because that is what the new news is that the OP is about.

- algorias 3y agoNo, I'm saying that they also have a comparable rate of post-viral syndrome, and a comparable rate of severe cases. It is not clear at all at this point if covid will be able to do this much damage to the next generation (whose first exposure was as babies). Maybe this blood brain barrier thing is something that all viruses do if the immune system doesn't respond appropriately. I genuinely don't know.
- wahnfrieden 3y agoNo, this breakdown of the blood brain barrier is unique, which makes it curious to dismiss as "not more dangerous than the rest"
