Résumé

Viral respiratory infections, including SARS-CoV-2 infection, can trigger respiratory symptoms among patients suffering from chronic respiratory diseases, leading to exacerbations and hospitalizations. Despite the tropism of SARS-CoV-2 into the respiratory tract, chronic respiratory diseases do not seem to be risk factors for severe forms of COVID-19.
