    Abstract

    This study concerns the clinicopathologic correlation of 50 decedents of 2019 coronavirus disease (Covid-19) due to severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) from among 250 reported patients succumbing to Covid-19 illness (1-7) who underwent detailed postmortem neuropathological studies. This disease, which starts in the lungs, is a multisystem disorder affecting all major organs including the brain. These cases provide a more complete picture of Covid-19 illness, and are important in the development of effective treatment strategies.
