Bordetella bronchiseptica is a gram-negative coccobacillus that colonizes the respiratory system of mammals such as dogs, cats, rabbits and others and might cause upper respiratory tract infections. Although it can be rarely pathogenic in humans, there are several case reports describing infections in humans. We describe the case of a patient without prolonged immunosuppression or underlying diseases, with bacteremia from Bordetella bronchiseptica, while being treated in a tertiary hospital for COVID-19 infection.
支气管败血波氏杆菌是一种革兰氏阴性球杆菌，可在狗、猫、兔子等哺乳动物的呼吸系统中定植，并可能导致上呼吸道感染。虽然它在人类中很少致病，但有几例病例报告描述了人类感染的情况。我们描述了一例在三级医院接受新冠病毒感染治疗的患者，该患者没有长期免疫抑制或基础疾病，却出现了支气管败血波氏杆菌引起的菌血症。
