Introduction:
Sars Cov 2 infection is a complex viral infectious lung disease that can be complicated by damage to other organs.
Case Report:
This is a type 2 diabetic patient, overweight and hypertensive, who consults in an emergency for a meningeal syndrome in a context of fever and cough, in whom laboratory and para-clinical investigations have concluded diagnosis of severe Sars cov2 pneumonia complicated by meningeal syndrome. Resuscitation under antibiotic therapy and immunosuppressant treatment associated with risk factor treatments led to a cure without serious complications.
Conclusion:
Sars Cov 2 pneumonia complicated by meningism is serious, early management combining antibiotic therapy and immunosuppressive treatment improves the prognosis.

Causative Organism
The primary infectious agent causing tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing, acid-fast, aerobic rod that exhibits sensitivity to heat and ultraviolet light. Instances of Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium contributing to the development of TB infection are rare.
