Abstract

Encephalitis is the inflammation of the brain which is usually caused by viral infections, but it can be also due to other non-infectious agents. We report an interesting case of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) enceph- alitis with Haemophilus influenzae co-infection in association with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, without pulmonary involvement or fever.
