“…Nevertheless, the symptoms associated with the SARS-CoV-2 virus, such as fever, headache, reduced appetite, muscular discomfort, and gastroenteritis (nausea and diarrhea), have a remarkable resemblance to those observed in Salmonella infections, including both typhoid and non-typhoid strains ( 9 ). This recurring overlap of symptoms between these pathogens during the COVID-19 pandemic made it challenging to accurately identify Salmonella , giving rise to diagnostic bias in clinical settings ( 5 ). Additionally, according to Ürkmez and Atalay ( 1 ) as well as Haqqi et al ( 13 ), the simultaneous occurrence of COVID-19 and Salmonella infections presents significant challenges in the planning of clinical treatment ( 8 , 26 ).…”

“…Utilizing precise and reliable diagnostic techniques is crucial for making succinct decisions while dealing with these overlapping symptoms. Accurate identification of pathogens implicated in illnesses is crucial for effective treatment ( 5 , 14 ). Conversely, inadequate treatment might exacerbate the condition for both the patient and the whole scenario.…”
