Third, we assessed the association between viral presence in LRT and mortality using mixed-effect logistic models for clustered data adjusting for the time between symptoms' onset and date of sampling. Our objectives were (1) to describe the viral shedding and the viral load in LRT and (2) to determine THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN VIRAL PRESENCE AND MORTALITY in critically ill COVID-19 patients. The viral shedding in LRT lasted almost 30 days in median in critically ill patients, and the SARS-CoV-2 viral presence in the LRT was associated with the 6week mortality. Diabetes mellitus is a risk factor for prolonged SARS-CoV-2 viral shedding in lower respiratory tract samples of critically ill patients	./cache/cord-337485-nqcnd9py.txt	./txt/cord-337485-nqcnd9py.txt
