Objectives: Our work assessed the prevalence of co-infections in patients with SARS-CoV-2. Methods: All patients hospitalized in a Parisian hospital during the first wave of COVID-19 were tested by mPCR if they presented ILI symptoms. Results: A total of 806 patients (21%) were positive for SARS-CoV-2, 755 (20%) were positive for other respiratory viruses. Among the SARS-CoV-2 positive patients, 49 (6%) had viral co-infections. They presented similar age, symptoms, except for fever (p=0.013) and headaches (p=0.048), than single SARS-CoV-2 infections. Conclusions: SARS-CoV-2 infected patients presenting viral co-infections had similar clinical characteristics and prognosis than patients solely infected with SARS-CoV-2. |
