ABSTRACT
In this manuscript, COVID-19, Ebola virus disease, Nipah virus infection, SARS, and MERS are suggested to be considered for a novel immunological reclassification as acute onset immune dysrhythmia syndrome (n-AIDS) due to altered monocytic, Th1/Th2, as well as cytokines and chemokines balances. n-AIDs is postulated to be the cause of the acute respiratory distress and multi-inflammatory syndromes which are described with fatal COVID-19, and immunomodulators are suggested to effectively manage the mentioned diseases as well as for other disorders caused by Th1/Th2 imbalance. Meanwhile, para COVID syndrome is suggested to describe various immune-related complications, whether before or after recovery, and to embrace a potential of a latent infection, that might be discovered later, as occurred with Ebola virus disease. Finally, our hypothesis has evolved out of our real-life practice that uses immunomodulatory drugs to manage COVID-19 safely and effectively.
