Inflammation in COVID-19: A Risk for Superinfections

The worldwide coronavirus pandemic has been one of the most significant health crisis threats in recent years. COVID-19 not only cause mortality this pandemic. A dangerous but frequent complication viral infections is secondary superinfection or superimposed bacterial infection. Despite lacking data on prevalence, microbiology, and outcomes co-infection superinfection, limited publications have reported high incidence severe infection patients its effect mortality. Those who clinical symptoms disease, others requiring prolonged stay intensive care units (ICU), are more susceptible to developing superinfections by nosocomial pathogens. Ventilator-acquired pneumonia (VAP) common type observed among patients, followed bacteraemia with sepsis, urinary tract (UTI). There an urgent need for prospective studies provide epidemiological, clinical, microbiological superinfections, which can be used form effective antimicrobial guidelines that could important role disease outcomes.
