What's the relationship between the October 2020 case in Iowa and this February 2021 case in Texas:

> A neurologist from Methodist and an ear, nose and throat doctor diagnosed her with pneumocephalus days later. Pneumocephalus is when there has been a rupture in the dural membrane, or the lining that’s around the brain, which allows air to enter the space that’s normally occupied by the head.

Leaking spinal fluid after a Covid nose swab with similar symptoms. And subsequent discovery of a condition unlikely to have been created by a nasal swab, but rather aggravated by it. I did add an edit to note it's a different person.
