SARS-CoV2-triggered acute arthritis: Viral arthritis rather than reactive arthritis Dear Editor, We read, with interest, a case report titled "The first reactive arthritis (ReA) case associated with COVID-19" by Saricaoglu et al. 1 Furthermore, it has been concluded that ReA is related to bacterial infections that patients with HIV contract, not to HIV infection itself. 11, 12 In conclusion, it is necessary to understand the fundamental knowledge of ReA, 4-7 viral arthritis, 10 and other acute inflammatory arthritis. The differential diagnosis of these diseases is very important as it influences not only the subsequent management of patients in clinical practice 9,10 but also knowledge in the new literature.
