Based on experience with other viral respiratory illnesses, patients with cystic fibrosis were believed to have worse prognosis when infected with Coronavirus disease 2019. We report a case of cystic fibrosis in a young girl who developed coronavirus disease 2019 with short-term evolution of the disease and good recovery with no known major long term sequel.
