Why we only infrequently detect or report two or more respiratory viruses co-infecting an adult host is poorly understood. We report a rare case where influenza B and SARS-CoV-2 caused viral pneumonia in a 74-year-old man diagnosed during the UK winter epidemic/pandemic for these organisms and discuss concepts of co-infection.
为什么我们很少发现或报告两种或更多呼吸道病毒同时感染成年宿主,这一点还不太清楚。我们报告了一个罕见的病例,在英国冬季流行/大流行期间,一种同时感染乙型流感病毒和 SARS-CoV-2 的 74 岁男性患者被诊断为病毒性肺炎,并讨论了合并感染的概念。
