During the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic, a clinical case of a 43-year-old young man is presented, who after six days of attending a concert in Mexico City developed an infectious of the upper respiratory tract that evolved to a pneumonia with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), confirming SARS CoV2 infection and bacterial superinfection with resistant methicillin Staphylococcus aureus, requiring invasive ventilatory assistance and care in the Intensive Care Unit of the Hospital Bité Medica, Mexico City by an interdisciplinary group. The patient improved with hydroxychloroquine and lopinavir/ritonavir, systemic steroid, linezolid, ventilatory strategies for pulmonary protection, and general critical care without developing failure of other organs or systems.
