Title: Active or latent tuberculosis increases susceptibility to COVID-19 and disease severity Document date: 2020_3_16
ID: ffm5fww3_19
Snippet: With respect to disease severity, the percentage of severe/critical cases with MTB coinfection was significantly higher than that in the mild/moderate group (78% vs 22%; p = 0.0049; Figure 1B ). Seven of the 9 severe/critical cases were IGRA+ve indicating MTB co-infection, and of these, 4 of the 5 cases that developed ARDS were IGRA+ve. By comparison, 21 of 27 cases (78%) in Group 1 (mild/moderate cases) were IGRA-ve and had no history of TB dise.....
Document: With respect to disease severity, the percentage of severe/critical cases with MTB coinfection was significantly higher than that in the mild/moderate group (78% vs 22%; p = 0.0049; Figure 1B ). Seven of the 9 severe/critical cases were IGRA+ve indicating MTB co-infection, and of these, 4 of the 5 cases that developed ARDS were IGRA+ve. By comparison, 21 of 27 cases (78%) in Group 1 (mild/moderate cases) were IGRA-ve and had no history of TB disease. This data infers that coinfection of SARS-CoV-2 with MTB tends to lead to the development of more severe or critical COVID-19 symptoms.
