Is COVID-19 a Perfect Storm for Parkinson’s Disease? (Neuigkeiten)

Abstract

Three recent case reports (by Méndez-Guerrero et al.,Cohen et al., and Faber et al.) describe the development of acute parkinsonism following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We discuss possible underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms, and whether COVID-19 might be associated with elevated long-term risk of Parkinson’s disease (PD).
