Abstract:
The scientific work presents the results of studies on various aspects of the combination of bronchial asthma and COVID-19. Symptoms of COVID-19, such as dry cough and shortness of breath, can also be present during an exacerbation of asthma, which leads to diagnostic difficulties. However, the presence of a high temperature can help differentiate it from an exacerbation of asthma, although a high temperature may be present in virus-induced asthma. The study of the history, the presence of close contact with infected COVID-19 and the absence of a previous atopic history in the child can also help in the differential diagnosis,
