Abstract
The covid19 infection is pandemic disease are more commonly in chronic diseases. As covid19 case pulmonary infection, the current study focuses on sickle cell disease patients are suitable to acute chest syndrome. It will clarify the risk factors for covid19 infection and its clinical features in sickle cell disease. It also reviews the radiological findings to gain more data on this pandemic disease. The current study includes 44 cases of sickle cell disease having covid19 infection. The entire cases include sickle cell disease only in 89% whereas the other sickle cell disease cases are coexisted with beta- thalassemia in 9.1%. The fourth decade is the highest peak incidence. There are several complications found to be in sickle cell disease are acute chest syndrome, chronic leg ulcer, renal failure exceeding 10%. The bronchial asthma found to be in 6.9% and avascular necrosis found to be 11.4% whereas the cerebrovascular accident found to be in 13.8%. The radiological changes include lung tissues, alveoli, pleural cavities and pulmonary arteries in different rate. The incidence of recovery found to be in 93% whereas the death found to be in 7%. It found to be involving in respiratory and gastrointestinal systems result in different clinical features in different rate. This study compares the clinical features, findings investigation and complications between sex and decades. Further, this study clarifies recovery and mortality rate between sex and decades. Knowing and understanding covid19 infection in sickle cell disease, physicians will be able to provide high quality of medical services.

As the covid19 is a pandemic disease, patients with sickle cell disease and treating physician raise several Concerns regarding the susceptible of covid19 infection as a risk factor in which the sickle cell patient is more likely to susceptible to acute chest syndrome [1-3]
Summary
As the covid is a pandemic disease, patients with sickle cell disease and treating physician raise several Concerns regarding the susceptible of covid infection as a risk factor in which the sickle cell patient is more likely to susceptible to acute chest syndrome [1-3]. The aggravating factors of sickle cell crisis are hypoxia, acidosis and dehydration which are consequences of infection [1]. The acute chest syndrome is a major reason of death the current study will focus on finding to identify the risk factors rate and correlate with mortality. It measures the gender and age to provide more information of risk factors in relation to covid infection. The current study will describe the recovery and death incidence and duration by reviewing the entire cases considering the existence of the risk factors
