Abstract in brief

Asthma is being studied to determine if it increases the risk of severe outcomes from COVID-19, such as hospitalization or ICU admission.
Current research suggests that well-controlled asthma may not significantly raise the risk, but severe or uncontrolled asthma could potentially lead to worse COVID-19 outcomes.
It's important for asthma patients to manage their condition properly and follow public health guidelines to reduce their risk.]
