What if brain damage from Covid makes the infected person deny Covid exists?

(I think this is happening now to many Americans and it explains how insane people are acting, especially in response to covid, almost foaming at the mouth claiming the virus is a hoax, as the sci fi horror disaster film qualities of events continue:)
US scientists have found the first direct evidence that coronavirus could infect the human brain and replicate inside its cells, heightening concern about the disease’s poorly understood neurological symptoms. Thomas Hartung and colleagues at Johns Hopkins University made the discovery after adding low levels of Sars-Cov-2, the virus responsible for Covid-19, to tiny neuronal balls known as mini-brains that are grown from human stem cells. The researchers found the virus infected neurons in the mini-brains via the ACE2 human protein that is known to be an important entry point for Sars-Cov-2. The virus then multiplied within the neurons; within three days the number of copies had increased at least tenfold. “It is really critical to know that our most precious organ can be directly affected by the virus,” said Prof Hartung, a toxicology expert at Johns Hopkins, adding it was still unclear how frequently this happened in Covid-19 patients.
Whether the virus can infect the brain is among the biggest questions in a long list of unknowns about the way the disease seems to affect most tissues and organs in the human body. The study, which is under peer review at the journal Altex but not yet published, follows unconfirmed reports of neurological symptoms in Covid-19 patients, including in the original outbreak in Wuhan. More than a third of coronavirus victims who were hospitalised in the Chinese city exhibited neurological symptoms, including dizziness, headache and seizures. However, it has never been clear whether the virus affects the brain and nerve cells directly or whether such symptoms are a secondary result caused by damage to the patients’ immune and cardiovascular systems/ For instance, it is not known whether a loss of the sense of smell, a common symptom of the virus, is a result of direct infection of olfactory neurons or a side-effect of infection in other cells involved in olfaction.

A neuroimaging study showed brain damage in 20% of patients who died from coronavirus, Erasmus Hospital said Wednesday. Researchers used MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) to observe the brains of patients who died as a result of this virus. About 20% of them had damage in the form of haemorrhages (bleeding in the surrounding tissue) or oedema (swelling), mainly affecting the posterior parts of the brain. This damage appears related in particular to the coronavirus directly attacking blood vessels in the brain.

(More re covid on the brain:)
Doctors also are reporting a growing number of Covid-19 patients with symptoms of neurological damage, including brain inflammation, seizures, and hallucinations, the Wall Street Journal reports....While health experts originally were telling patients to avoid seeking care at hospitals unless they had common Covid-19 symptoms such as a fever, cough, or trouble breathing, neurologists are hoping the new data will add neurological symptoms—such as confusion, numbness, or trouble speaking—to that list. "This article should open up everyone's eyes that this disorder affects the brain as well." said S. Andrew Josephson, chair of neurology at the University of California-San Francisco.

(One more re covid on the brain or I'll grow into my chair:)
As COVID-19 spreads throughout the country, much attention has been paid to the devastating effects of the virus on the lungs. But doctors are learning how the virus may affect other organs, including the brain. Some patients with COVID-19 have had neurological symptoms, which may include an increased risk of stroke. Other symptoms may include headache, loss of the senses of smell and taste, hallucinations, vivid dreams, meningitis and seizures. Neurologists Elyse Singer, MD and David Liebeskind, MD, explain what is known -- and not yet known -- about the neurologic complications of COVID-19.
Dr. Singer is the director of the Neuro-Infectious Diseases Program at UCLA, as well as the founder of the National Neurological AIDS Bank. Dr. Liebeskind is director of the UCLA Stroke Center.
Is there evidence that this virus can infect the brain and nervous system?
Dr. Singer: Yes. Reports are beginning to trickle in...
