| dc.description.abstract | The COVID-19 pandemic continues to surprise us all with its aftermath. The connection between the virus and neuropsychiatric symptoms is thought to arise from both direct and indirect impacts on the brain, and various explanations have been proposed to account for these effects. This is a case of visual and persisting auditory hallucinations in a middle-aged man, with no previous psychiatric illnesses, after suffering from very severe symptoms of COVID-19. These hallucinations remained for months following recovery from the virus. While hospitalized, the patient also reported having a near-death experience and seeing his deceased father. Despite the inevitable time frame limitation when it comes to severe neuropsychiatric manifestations of patients who were diagnosed with COVID-19, it is imperative to research adequate and effective interventions. | pt_PT |
