High-Grade Atrioventricular Nodal Block: An Unusual Presentation of COVID-19 Infection

While respiratory system disease, including pneumonia, remains the principal clinical presentation, several cardiovascular complications of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) including myocardial infarction, myocarditis, and tachyarrhythmias were reported. We present an unusual case of fatal high-g...
