This is, at the most abstract shortest summary possible, what causes MS. and these interactions could then lead to a higher risk of neurological and psychiatric disorders. MS isn't a psychiatric disorder but it is a neurological one. Depression is also common in MS patients but it's not clear how much of that is caused by the same brain lesions that cause MS versus the fact that MS just sucks.

In the two patients where covid-19 was seen as a likely trigger, the doctors chose to treat them with immunotherapy, including steroids to tamp down inflammation. This is also how (one of the ways) you treat MS. Inflammation is also synonymous with the lesions / scarring incurred by MS. The second patient seemed to respond modestly to the immunotherapy, and by the six-month mark they were still improved but continued to have memory problems and trouble concentrating.
