A growing number of studies indicate a broad range of neurological manifestations, including seizures, occur in patients with COVID-19 infection. We report a 29-year-old female patient with status epilepticus and positive SARS-CoV-2 in the cerebrospinal fluid. Our findings support previous reports suggesting seizure as a possible symptom of COVID-19 infection.
