Abstract

Combined autoimmune neutropenia (AIN) and Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare disease that can present as extremely low neutrophil count and platelet count, respectively [1]. We describe the first case, to our knowledge, of the novel SARS CoV-2 infection and combined autoimmune neutropenia (AIN) and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in a healthy 27-year-old male.
