thestudy.Therespiratory,blood,urinaryandpusformsurgicalsitessampleswerecollected to find
the incidence of the bacterial infection in hospitalized COVID 19patients. The samples were
collected 48 hours after the admission of the patient in to thehospital.Results: The incidence
of the nosocomial infections in the COVID 19 patients was30.24%. The Staphylococcus
aureus, Klebsiellapneumoniae, and Coagulase negativestaphylococci were more prevalent
bacteria causing secondary infection in COVID 19patients.E.coliwas predominantly
seeninUrinesamples.Conclusion: The rate of bacterial infections in the COVID 19 patients
was observed
ashighandneedtobeconsideredtotakeprecautionstominimisethespreadofnosocomial infections.
