The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a disease caused by a new type of coronavirus that the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and has affected nearly all countries worldwide. More than 5 million global cases have been reported to date. As first the case was identified in China in December 2019; then Turkey started reporting cases in March 2020. SARS-CoV-2 is highly infectious and especially leads to morbidity and mortality in elderly and chronically ill patients. In children, fewer and milder infections have been reported. There are 3 cases reported in the neonatal period so far in the literature. We have observed that the literature does not contain any newborn cases reported from our country. We report the first neonatal case of COVID-19 from Turkey.

Key words: Coronavirus; COVID-19; SARS-CoV-2; neonatal
