The outcome of any coinfection or superinfection can be affected by the interactions taking place between the infectious agents, the nature of the cell/host, adverse environmental and management conditions, intestinal and respiratory microbiomes, and the triggered immune response-innate and adaptive-developed afterwards [2, 3] . It is well-known that viral infections can induce an ideal environment for a bacterial superinfection through different mechanisms such as the destruction of the epithelial barrier, the over-expression of the receptors involved in the bacterial adhesion to the cells, and the alteration of the host immune response [1, 2, 94, 95] . ./cache/cord-324950-ux7shvji.txt ./txt/cord-324950-ux7shvji.txt
