1.Primary and secondary somatosensory cortex;
2.Anterior cingulated gyrus;
3.Amygdalae;
4.Thalamus;
5.Midinsular cortex;
6.Prefrontal cortex; and
7.Posterior cerebellum.
I'd wager these areas are often affected in the same order starting with the thalamus and then the amygdala.

But I'd also bet you can add the brain stem and the medula oblongata being affected even sooner.

The "brain" isn't all in our heads and the ganglions are the very first affected in the spread of this in most cases.
