Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Regarding to the Aspergillus isolates in special for those that were obtained from COVID patients it will be necesarry to specify which were the clinical conditions of the patient (as if those patients met any CAPA criteria, clinical characteristics and  status of those patients, age,  any possible comorbidity an also the treatment they were receving (steroids, under mechanical ventilation or not, etc) and not only mention them as respiratory samples, so one can have a better idea about the pathogenicity of those isolates and not merely represent another colonizer. It also be of great interest to know the specific time of the year the samples were collected.
