Abstract  Background:  Data on incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 infection are limited. Methods:  We conducted a monocenter retrospective study comparing the incidence of VAP and invasive aspergil‑ losis between patients with COVID-19-related acute respiratory distress syndrome (C-ARDS) and those with non-SARSCoV-2 viral ARDS (NC-ARDS). Results:  We assessed 90 C-ARDS and 82 NC-ARDS patients, who were mechanically ventilated for more than 48 h. At ICU admission, there were significantly fewer bacterial coinfections documented in C-ARDS than in NC-ARDS: 14 (16%) vs 38 (48%), p
