Asthma, COPD Disease Severity May Increase Risk of Developing Severe COVID-19
Disease severity of both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma may increase the risk of the development of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole Improves Lung Function in Pediatric Asthma
Treatment with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole was associated with improvements in lung function and decreased visits to the emergency department among children with asthma.
Asthma Associated With Comparable Risk of Hospitalization in COVID-19
Compared with the absence of asthma, the presence of asthma is associated with a comparable risk of hospitalization and use of mechanical ventilation, and a lower risk of mortality in patients with COVID-19.
COVID-19 Outcomes Not Worse for People With Asthma
Patients with asthma may have a lower risk for becoming infected with COVID-19.
Maternal Antibiotic Use During Pregnancy May Increase Risk of Childhood Asthma
Exposure to maternal antibiotics during pregnancy may be associated with an increased risk of childhood asthma.
Eosinophilia Protective Factor Against Severe COVID-19 in Patients With Asthma
In patients with asthma, the presence of preexisting eosinophilia was protective against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated hospital admission.
Anxiety May Increase Risk for Worsening Asthma During COVID-19 Pandemic
High levels of anxiety are a risk factor for loss of asthma control and decline in disease-related quality of life.
COVID-19 Hospitalization, Severity Risk May Not Be Higher in Patients With Asthma
Patients with asthma who test positive for SARS-CoV-2 may not have a higher risk of hospitalization or severe outcomes associated with COVID-19 compared with patients without asthma.
Asthma Does Not Appear to Affect COVID-19 Hospitalization Outcomes
Younger patients with asthma who were hospitalized with COVID-19 did not have worse outcomes than patients hospitalized with COVID-19 without asthma.
Comorbid Asthma and COVID-19: Risk Factors for Hospitalization, Mortality
Researchers may have identified several risk factors for hospitalization, intensive care, and mortality in patients with COVID-19 and comorbid asthma.
