Abstract:
The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2) is the cause of the COVID-19 pandemic [5]. SARS-Cov-2 demonstrates partial resemblance to SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV in phylogenetic analysis, clinical manifestations, and pathological findings [6, 7]. Reports emerging from China have described ataxia as a neurological symptom of the SARS-CoV-2 infection [5]. Opsoclonus consists of back-to-back multidirectional conjugate saccades without an inter-saccadic interval [8]. Myoclonus is defined as a sudden, brief, "shock-like", nonepileptic involuntary movement [9], which has been described as a symptom of SARS-CoV-2 infection [10]. Opsoclonus-Myoclonus-Ataxia syndrome (OMAS) associated COVID-19 infection has been reported recently [1112].

Seizures: Classification
Seizures are typically classified into two main categories: focal and generalized seizures.
Focal Seizures
Focal seizures originate from specific regions of the brain. These seizures are further sub-classified into two types:
