The pandemic due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has had a variable presentation in the population, from mild to severe cases where large hospital supplies are required for its care. In the case of immunosuppressed patients this disease has had an uncertain behavior in terms of its presentation as well as its prognosis. This clinical case shows a presentation of a prolonged course of COVID-19 associated with a state of immunosuppression due to maintenance treatment with rituximab due to the diagnosis of follicular lymphoma, where a course of migratory pneumonia without the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome is observed (ARDS) being that unlike what has been published in the literature a control and maintenance of the disease is shown only with the use of remdesivir, however the prognosis of the patient is conclusively unknown.

Palabras llave : Coronavirus disease 2019; remdesivir; follicular lymphoma; rituximab; immunocompromised.
