Is this description of coronavirus effects true? “Once you present symptoms and your body recovers, the encephalitis portion of the protein sequence is attacking the nervous system where it’s hard for blood to access and present antibodies, the nervous system infection is what is causing people who appear fine to suddenly drop into a seizure and die. That kick effect is pretty much sudden death as death can happen within a minute of that event.”

This description is correct in its broad outlines. The precise sequence and mechanistic basis for initiation of these symptoms is somewhat inaccurate. This is a function of degree of resistance and vulnerability within each victim. The development of central nervous system symptoms is typically a more severe later stage, but this is more a function of the rate of progression of internal damage more than something that can be attributed solely to one aspect of the makeup of the virus and a precise chronology in the sequence of events following the initial infection. This is a most serious complication and indeed can be rapidly fatal and that has been seen over and over again among the infected population. It is a subpopulation who reach this stage early, so when the cases are isolated, this may not be seen happening at all yet. It is more a function of the numbers. When there is a mass of individuals with ongoing infection and little ability to treat these hapless victims and give them medical care, more will worsen to this stage.
