Original Note:
This claim is unverified. It has been known since 2020 that the SARS-CoV-2 virus can cause neurological side effects (see link), but the claim that a new variant attacks the frontal lobes of the brain is not supported by any scientific study. https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases/coronavirus/how-does-coronavirus-affect-the-brain
