The emergence and rapid spread of a new type of coronavirus (SARS-Cov2) contributes to the development of severe acute respiratory syndrome with a mortality rate of 3.8% to 5.6% of cases. Monitoring of the etiological structure of lethal pneumonia in the conditions of a new coronavirus infection can help in drawing up a scheme of adequate therapy for severe patients in hospitals. The article discusses the etiological structure of lethal pneumonia in case of Covid 19 infection for the period 2020-2022 in Smolensk. In the course of the performed studies, qualitative differences were revealed in the bacterial structure of possible complications developing against the background of the emerging coronavirus infection, depending on the study period. The question of the relationship of various bacterial complications with the existing evolutionary changes of the virus, as well as the features of the strategy of the viral infection itself, depending on the state of the normal microflora of the body, is discussed.
