Abstract :
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) affects millions of people worldwide. Clinical manifestations range from asymptomatic to severe viral pneumonia. CVID patients with COVID-19 infection are not adequately studied. In some studies, CVID patients had higher mortality rates, although other studies showed that CVID patients might have an uncomplicated COVID-19 infection. We describe 14 cases of COVID-19 infection in Iranian CVID patients in this study, including clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, and treatment strategies. There were 29% of patients with mild disease, 43% with moderate disease, and 29% with severe disease in this study. A critical case and a death occurred in none of our patients. There were six cases of infection more than two weeks after receiving the second dose of Sinopharm BIBP COVID-19 vaccine; all had mild to moderate disease. Among these patients, Remdesivir was the most frequently prescribed medication. According to this study, most of our patients presented with an uncomplicated disease course.
