description The world is plagued by the historic pandemic of coronavirus disease. The situation is gruesome in developing countries with a large burden of other infectious diseases like tuberculosis (TB), and HIV-AIDS. Globally the chaos due to the ever-growing cases of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) has overwhelmed the health systems. The condition of healthcare in some of the underprivileged countries is grave. In this current scenario, the attention is mostly towards the COVID-19 and the efforts for the control of other diseases like TB have taken a back step. We herein, present the world's first case of primary multidrug-resistant pulmonary TB with COVID-19 in an Indian female. To the best of our knowledge, there is no such case ever reported in the medical literature to date.
