Of eligible cases, 122 individuals (13.97%) died during hospitalization. The most common non-neurological manifestations were fever (81.1%), cough (76.1%), fatigue (36.1%), and shortness of breath (27.6%). Aging, male gender, co-morbidity, smoking, hemoptysis, chest tightness, and shortness of breath were associated with increased odds of severe cases and\/or mortality. There were 561 (64.3%) cases with smell and taste dysfunctions (hyposmia: 58.6%; anosmia: 41.4%; dysguesia: 100%). They were more common among females (69.7%) and non-smokers (66.7%). Hyposmia\/anosmia and dysgeusia were found to be associated with reduced odds of severe cases and mortality. Myalgia (24.8%), headaches (12.6%), and dizziness (11.9%) were other common neurological symptoms. Headaches had negative correlation with severity and death due to COVID-19 but myalgia and dizziness were not associated. The cerebrovascular events (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200910) and status epilepticus (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20091) were other neurological findings.

The parosmia (30.9%) and phantosmia (9.0%) were also reported during 8\u2009weeks of follow-up. Five cases with mild headaches and 5 cases with myalgia were reported after 16\u2009weeks of discharge.
