Neurotropic effects of respiratory viral infections: mental and neuropsychological aspects

The review is devoted to the problem of neurological complications that result from respiratory viral infections due to viral invasion to the central and peripheral nervous systems. Psychoneurological consequences after the disease of COVID-19 are considered separately. Viral pathogens can enter the...
