  Author(s): Yeshimebet Kassa*, Alemu Gedefie, Mihret Tilahun, Abdurrahman Ali and Endris Ebrahim
  
  The new corona virus SARS-CoV-2 infection and the COVID-19 pandemic have turned into an inexorable global public health and economic disaster. The gut microbiota is a diverse bacteria population that live in the human intestines. The gut microbiota plays important roles in the modulation of host metabolism and gene expression, epi- thelial integrity maintenance, and inflammatory and immune mediation. As a result, the normal gut microbiota plays a critical role in maintaining health and preventing disease. The gut-lung axis is bidirectional, which implies that metabolites created from gut bacteria have an effect on the lung via blood, whereas lung inflammation alters gut microbiota levels. Lung dysfunction is caused by changes in the immunological responses of neutrophils, T cells, TLRs, and inflammatory cytokines such IL-1, IL-2, IL-10, IFN-, and TNF-, which all play a role ..
