       SUMMARY - Straight from the article itself, "Researchers at the
       Francis Crick Institute have shown in lab-based experiments that
       variants of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can
       affect the blood-brain barrier and damage brain cells in
       different ways."
       Also, "The wild-type virus [the original one from Wuhan] killed
       all cell types except astrocytes, whereas Alpha and Beta only
       killed pericytes, and omicron killed endothelial cells and
       pericytes."
       The article goes into further detail about these findings.
