It has been documented in patients with humoral immunodeficiencies a better prognosis for developing less intense cytokine release syndrome. The alteration in cellular immunity, especially lymphopenia at the expense of CD4+ T lymphocytes, may be associated with a worse prognosis as the response against viruses is compromised as well as high susceptibility to superinfection by opportunistic agents such as P. aeruginosa and Mucor sp. For this reason, we must maintain close surveillance in patients with inborn errors of immunity with cellular defects, as is the case of patients with Good's syndrome who present with COVID-19.
