Abstract

Recently, Baumann et al. described the characteristics and outcomes of four patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) diagnosed with symptomatic COVID-19. The course of the disease was mild, and no patient required admission in an intensive care unit. The authors speculate that the CLL-related immunodeficiency might be beneficial in the outcome of the COVID-19 and deserved further investigation. No specific serological testing information was provided. The American Society of Hematology (ASH) has published recommendations on the prevention of COVID-19 in patients with CLL but again not on serological investigations.
