Python on MacOS "dyld: Library not loaded" - error

Question

I am trying to run a python script that executes few API calls and Kafka logic but getting following error:
dyld: Library not loaded: @executable_path/../.Python

Tried brew update && brew upgrade and also with both Python2 and Python3 but still getting same error.
What could be the cause and how to fix it?

Hi I got this issue too after brew upgrade, I solved with delete virtualenv

find myvirtualenv -type l -delete

then recreate virtualenv

virtualenv myvirtualenv
