COVID‐19 and a Pulmonary Abscess in a 2‐Month Infant: A Case Report

Abstract

ABSTRACT Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) is an acute respiratory syndrome that has had a significant global impact. Some studies reported that SARS‐CoV‐2 infected adults, especially intubated individuals, are at risk of lung abscess, but a few studies show lung abscess in infants. We present a 2‐month‐old infant with a lung abscess and positive SARS‐CoV‐2 PCR.
