Abstract
COVID‐19 is a novel single‐stranded RNA virus responsible for the preliminary outbreak of viral pneumonia in China that progressed rapidly into a pandemic. To our knowledge, the possible benefits, or detriments of the co-existence of endemic parasitic infections and vectors, especially in the old world, haven’t been considered. In this review, we aimed to introduce several inquiries in this concern.
