How COVID-19 causes smell loss: Olfactory support cells, not neurons, are vulnerable to novel coronavirus infection
Now, an international team of researchers led by neuroscientists at Harvard Medical School has identified the olfactory cell types most vulnerable to infection by SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Surprisingly, sensory neurons that detect and transmit the sense of smell to the brain are not among the vulnerable cell
MRI scans of the brains of 130 mammals, including humans, indicate equal connectivity
