We have seen an alarming increase in diarrhea prevalence amid Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) in Bangladesh. Healthcare professionals might face difficulty in diagnosis as these two infectious diseases have some common symptoms. Though there are confirmatory diagnostic tests for individual cases, there are chances of misdiagnosis as co-infections occur. Here we presented distinct clinical features of diarrhea and COVID-19 for differential diagnosis. We demonstrated the common overlapping symptoms of these two infectious diseases to facilitate fast diagnosis of patients. Also, we have discussed possible reasons for this upsurge of diarrheal infections in Bangladesh. Finally, we have made some recommendations based on our findings for managing this upsurge of diarrheal disease during the COVID-19 pandemic in Bangladesh. The healthcare authorities should take immediate measures before the tremendous twin effects of these two infectious diseases.
在孟加拉国，我们发现2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）期间腹泻患病率急剧上升。由于这两种传染病有一些共同症状，医护人员在诊断时可能会遇到困难。尽管针对个别病例有确诊诊断测试，但由于会发生合并感染，仍有误诊的可能性。在此，我们介绍了腹泻和COVID-19的不同临床特征以进行鉴别诊断。我们展示了这两种传染病的常见重叠症状，以便于快速诊断患者。此外，我们还讨论了孟加拉国腹泻感染激增的可能原因。最后，我们根据研究结果提出了一些建议，以应对孟加拉国COVID-19大流行期间腹泻疾病的激增情况。卫生当局应在这两种传染病产生巨大双重影响之前立即采取措施。
