COVID‐19–infected woman along with tuberculosis and psychogenic non‐epileptic seizures: A case report

Abstract During the COVID‐19 pandemic, we should not forget about chronic, underlying and important diseases, especially diseases that cause immune system deficiency, of which TB is one and may be missed. Also, we should pay attention to the past medical history of the patients and their drug‐drug i...
