Objectives: Irrational and injudicious use of antibiotics in COVID-19 patients could be detrimental in a tropical country with a weak antibiotic stewardship policy such as Bangladesh. This study aimed to focus on the antibiotic usage patterns in COVID-19 patients in Bangladesh.
Methods: This prospective observational study was performed from July 2020 to June 2021 in five tertiary hospitals in Bangladesh.
Background: Dengue-COVID-19 coinfection is one of the greatest emerging challenges in dengue-endemic areas during the continuing pandemic. With coinciding clinical and laboratory pictures, early diagnosis becomes burdensome, with management discrepancy.
Methods: A descriptive study was performed on dengue-COVID-19 coinfected patients during July-August 2021 for an overview of disease progression, severity and outcome.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) may be succeeded by a spectrum of complications, including invasive fungal infections (IFIs).

Our patient was normotensive, non-diabetic, presenting with multiple non-healing ulcers on different parts of the body.
