Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) related to SARS-CoV-2 infection has some unusual characteristics that differentiate it from the pathophysiology described in the more 'typical' ARDS.

With this opinion paper, we investigated the pathophysiological similarities between infant respiratory diseases (RDS...
