Core Tip Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has become a global health threat. SARS-CoV-2 infects host cells through binding to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2. COVID-19 patients exhibit gut dysbiosis. Here, the gut microbiota alterations in COVID-19 are summarized. The pathways and possible mechanisms of dysbiosis caused by SARS-CoV-2, as well as the impact of the gut microbiota and its metabolites on the inflammatory response and antiviral effects during the course of the disease are also described. Therefore, targeting the gut microbiota should be considered a promising strategy for COVID-19 prevention, treatment, and prognostic assessment.
