Relationship between Bacillus Calmette Guerin Vaccination Policy and Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) Incidence
Iran J Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2021 Feb 11;20(1):106-113. doi: 10.18502/ijaai.v20i1.5417.ABSTRACTBacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) was designed for protecting children against tuberculosis. Also, it can protect against other infectious diseases through the induction of trained immunity. Due to its heterologous protective effects, the BCG vaccine has been proposed as atreatment option for coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19).

Evaluating the impact of COVID-19 on asthma morbidity: a comprehensive analysis of potential influencing factors
