摘要
While COVID-19 has gained popularity as a pandemic and as a cause of pulmonary-systemic disease, the condition continues to evolve our knowledge and understanding of immunology and medicine through its myriad clinical presentations. This article features a previously healthy 65-year-old female who presented with sudden features of cryptococcal meningitis, the progression of which raises questions as to what role the virus plays in the innate, adaptive, and overall host factors leading to immunosuppression.
