The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and asthma : What we have learned and what is still unknown

Copyright © 2023 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has brought new insights into the immunologic intricacies of asthma. In this review, we discuss the epidemiology of asthma in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 and the risk of severe infection. Type 2 inflammation had an overall protective effect against SARS-CoV-2 infection by various mechanisms summarized in this review. Asthma, intranasal, and inhaled corticosteroids decreased the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptor, an important receptor for SARS-CoV-2 entry into host cells. We summarize the nuances of the treatment of type 2 inflammation despite its underlying protective effects. Research to date has shown that patients on various allergen immunotherapies and biologics do benefit from being vaccinated.
