The supposed mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection influence on tuberculosis infection. Tuberculosis infection contributes either lung damage and general immune suppression, which is enforced by SARS-CoV-2 infection and predisposes to the development of severe/chronic tuberculosis with drug resistance. On the other side, the latent immune suppression might be a defending factor against the development of cytokine storm.
