Hemorrhagic stroke in hispanics with severe SARS-CoV2 infection

An increasing body of evidence suggests that the coronavirus disease 2019 (SARS-CoV2) may be associated with cerebrovascular disease, although most cases have been ischemic strokes related to occlusion of major intracranial vessels [1 –3]. Intracranial hemorrhages in the setting of SARS-CoV2 infection are exceedingly rare. To the best of our knowledge, only two cases has been reported in detail, one with a massive parenchymal brain hemorrhage and the other with an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage [4,5].
