Verifying reports of delusions and brain fogs, new research reveals just how coronavirus attacks and kills brain cells to churn out more copies of itself. 

Collaborating scientists around the globe have shown that the virus burglarizes brain cells, using their machinery to replicate, in a study posted online this week, which has not yet been peer-reviewed or published in a journal. 

And in the process, the infection seems to suck up the oxygen from other brain cells  near the ones it has invaded, eventually killing them.
