This study is aimed to confirm the current unproven correlation between COVID-19 infection and prior Dengue fever infection. The possible overlapping immunity between COVID-19 infection and Dengue fever infection on the health care workers (HCW) in Taiz City, Yemen was investigated. This study is designed as a cross-sectional study. The number of subjected HCWs to this study was 180 individuals, and they were tested for COVID-19 infection by RT-PCR, and blood specimens of HCWs were tested for prior Dengue fever infection by ELIZA. The total positive results were 87 positive results to COVID-19 infection and the total positive results were 121 positive results to Dengue infection, but the total COVID-19 with pervious Dengue infection were 60. The aim is achieved by studying the impact of some factors including blood group typing, clotting time, platelets count, gender, as well as the impact of DF IgG levels on the severity of COVID-19 infection .This study finds that there was a relationship between COVID-19 and Dengue infection. The most important findings of this study was the relationship between the type of Dengue infection (primary or secondary) and severity of COVID-19. The study shows that secondary infection with dengue reduces the severity of COVID-19 infection by 92%, and the COVID-19 is light, P-value = 0.021, While at 8%, COVID-19 is more severe. While in the primary infection of Dengue, COVID-19 was 55% light COVID-19, and COVID-19 was 45% more severe. The study reveals that there is a relationship between dengue IgG levels and the type of dengue infection with the severity of COVID-19 infection, meaning that high levels of dengue IgG with a new primary or secondary infection were non-severe infection with COVID-19 or no infection with COVID-19, with P-value=0.014 .The study also shows that blood grouping A was the most blood grouping that was infected with severity of COVID-19 P-Values(0.040) and the blood grouping O was the most blood grouping that was infected with Dengue infection P-Values(0.000), and that was answered why blood grouping O when was infected with COVID-19, the infection was light. The blood coagulation time was high in dengue patients by 84% and the odds value=5.25, CI=(0.24857- 1.272), P-value=0.001 while in COVID-19 patients were low .
