Abstract
The recent coronavirus disease 2019, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has more sequels among patients with comorbidities and coinfections. There are limited data regarding HIV/AIDS associated-coronavirus disease 2019 infection. We present a case of SARS-CoV-2 infection in a 37-year-old HIV-positive female patient. The patient admitted due to dry cough, headache, fatigue and a mild fever (37.6 degrees C) as well as bilateral ground-glass opacification in computed tomography. Her samples were positive by real-time PCR. She recovered and discharged after 16 days of hospitalization with stable conditions. This article presents the clinical symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of the first case of SARS-CoV-2 infection in an Iranian HIV-positive patient. Copyright (C) 2021 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

Reviews in Medical Microbiology is a quarterly review journal which provides a balanced coverage of the whole field of medical microbiology. The Journal publishes state-of-the art reviews, mini-reviews, case presentations and original research from on-going research of the latest developments and techniques in medical microbiology, virology, mycology, parasitology, clinical microbiology, and hospital infection. In addition, PhD-Review - a platform for young researchers, and biographical Bio-Sketch articles are also considered. Reviews are concise, authoritative, and readable synthesis of the latest information on its subject, and references are limited to the fifty key sources for full reviews and twenty for mini-reviews. Reviews in Medical Microbiology is the perfect way for both qualified and trainee microbiologists, and researchers and clinicians with an interest in microbiology, to stay fully informed of the latest developments in medical microbiology.
