    The global pandemic of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is not yet over. The widespread infection from the COVID-19 virus resulted in unusual hyperinflammatory response in certain individuals leading to the cytokine storm and mortality. Efficacy and safety of the current therapeutic strategies in treating these patients still needs to be further probed. Although scientists across the globe are busy delineating the cause of unusual immune response in some of the COVID-19 patients, the underlying aetiological complexities associated with the cytokine storm still needs to be unearthed. To this goal, a very high level of pro-inflammatory markers followed by a sustained unexpected and prolonged antibody response in a well-documented case of surviving severe COVID-19 infection with simultaneous cytokine storm during the COVID-19 pandemic b..
