COVID-19 illness is associated with diverse neurological manifestations. Its exceptionally high prevalence results from unprecedented genetic diversity, genomic recombination, and superspreading. With each new mutation and variant, there are foreseeable risks of rising fatality and novel neurological motor complications in childhood and adult cases. This chapter provides an extensive review of COVID-19 neurological illness, notably the motor manifestations. Innovative treatments have been developed to stem the spread of infectious contagious illness, and attenuate the resultant cytokine storm and other postinfectious immune aspects responsible for postacute COVID-19 syndrome due to the multiplier effect of infection, immunity, and inflammation, termed I3.
