Along with cardiac manifestations, one of the common extra-pulmonary manifestations of COVID-19 is diarrhea. Studies have shown that SARS-CoV-2 infects the gastro-intestinal (GI) tract via its viral receptor angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which is expressed on enterocytes of the ileum and colon [11]. The gene discussed is ACE2; the disease is COVID-19.
