Zusammenfassung:	Our patient is a 3‐week‐old female neonate, presented with complaints of low‐grade fever and a congested nose for one day.

Pulmonary hemorrhage has been reported in adults but rarely in children. To the best of our knowledge, this is the youngest age at which a patient with COVID‐19 infection developed pulmonary hemorrhage with no other underlying cause of it.
