“…At the time of COVID-19, the ability to provide good age-friendly care has been diminished due to lockdown and isolation further being disrupted by the pandemic ( 35 ). Many older persons with “long COVID” symptoms need rehabilitation which includes both attention to “mobility” and “mentation” ( 36 ). It is important that the nursing home team look for innovative ways to enhance age-friendly care at this time.…”

“…In the course of COVID-19 it is due to the fact that SARS-CoV-2 enters cells via the angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor [ 12 , 13 , 14 ], and ACE2 is associated with the balanced mechanisms of the renin angiotensin system responsible for the proper functions of heart, kidney, vascular endothelium, liver, lung, pancreas, skeletal muscle, gonads, liver, placenta and brain [ 13 ]. Such interactions have been indirectly proven by long-term systemic effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection (“long Covid”) [ 15 , 16 ].…”

The high rate of spreading of COVID-19 is attributed to airborne particles exhaled by infected but often asymptomatic individuals. In this review the role of aerosols in SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus transmission is discussed from the bio-physical perspective. The essential properties of the coronavirus virus transported inside aerosol droplets, their successive inhalation, and size-dependent deposition in the respiratory system are highlighted. The importance of face covers (respirators and masks) in the reduction of aerosol spreading is analyzed. Finally, the discussion of the physicochemical phenomena upon coronavirus enter to surface of lung liquids (bronchial mucus and pulmonary surfactant) is presented with a focus on a possible role of interfacial phenomena in pulmonary alveoli. Information given in this review should be important in understanding the essential biophysical conditions of COVID-19 infection via aerosol route as a prerequisite for effective strategies of respiratory tract protection and, possibly, indications for future treatments of the disease.

“…The post-COVID neurological symptoms are popularly known as brain fog. 3,4 Brain fog is not fully understood and is often described as slow thinking, difficulty in focusing, confusion, lack of concentration, or haziness in the thought processes. 5 The pathophysiology of the neuropsychiatric manifestations is postulated to be immune dysregulation, cerebrovascular microangiopathy, and autoimmunity via molecular mimicry (cross-reaction of myelin, glia, and beta-2 glycoprotein with viral epitopes or by direct neuronal damage).…”

A 52-year-old businessman, with no contributory medical or neuropsychiatric comorbidities, was hospitalized for COVID-19 pneumonia. He received conservative management as per COVID-19 treatment guidelines and was discharged after a week. Within a week of the discharge, he reported being withdrawn, having decreased interaction with family members, remaining mute for hours together, hypersomnolence, and sometimes would not swallow the chewed food. He was brought to the psychiatric outpatient department for evaluation. On Mini Mental State Examination, he scored 24 out of 27. In the Bush Francis Catatonia Rating Scale, the score was 24, with higher scores in the domains of mutism, verbal fluency, and negativism. EEG and MRI brain were normal. In view of catatonia and recent recovery from COVID pneumonia, a benzodiazepine without respiratory suppression effect, tofisopam, was administered at a dose of 100 mg/per day, in divided doses, for two weeks. No respiratory
